Those albums also have the bulk of the greatest hits anyway.

I'm also not sure if this fits more into Controversial NIN Opinions, but I've sometimes wished that NIN went through with performing at the 2005 MTV Movie Awards. I was always for NIN performing on live TV anyway.
Y u no mention The Slip?
