On the temptation to purchase AJFA - 8 CDs - 146 Tunes for $110.99

I'm drooling. You can't see it, but I am. I am trying to justify dropping $110.99 on my favorite Metallica album . . . OR, I can drop $7.99 / month for Amazon Unlimited. Here are the details: ...And Justice for All (Remastered Deluxe Box Set). Long story short is that there are 146 tunes across 8 CDs. Some are previously unreleased riffs and demos of the 9 tunes that eventually became the 9 tunes on the album. Since its release, I have touted this album as being flawless . . . and I still believe it is. It is on one side of the spectrum and, on the other side, is the Metallica / Lou Reed collaboration called Lulu. I'll go on record here and state for the record that, despite some defending the Lulu album - In defence of Lulu: why Metallica's most despised album is misunderstood By Stephen Hill 2 days ago Metal Hammer - I would NEVER EVER purchase a Remastered Deluxe Box Set of Lulu, which, of course, doesn't justify purchasing the ...And Justice for All (Remastered Deluxe Box Set) album - I just didn't want to devote an entire blog post to the crap that is Lulu.
