  1. I like that Amazon hides the single disc version of Soundgarden’s new album. You can’t search for it directly, and really have to hunt to find it under ‘other versions’. Amazon did the same thing with Pink Floyd’s new album; pointing you to the Deluxe Version with Blu-ray instead of the album proper.
