Just got this re-release thing from the UK today. It's in a very, very thin cardboard box, with a tab to pull out. The CD is in another cardboard sleeve inside of it. It seems very cheap. Unfortuantly my digital camera's batteries are charging so I took this pic with my phone.
There is no CD booklet, instead the box directs you to www.musicmadesimple.info for credits and whatnot. Here is some info on this "Slider Box" crap.
"Click on Release Colection in the left colum for releases in that category, on the results page click a release title to view and print the release's liner notes.
DISC BOX SLIDERS
This new range features bestselling hit collections from the greatest stars of pop, soul and rock music including Michael Jackson, Elvis Presley, Anastacia, Destiny's Child, Johnny Cash and Bruce Springsteen. Each disc box slider is released in a beautifully designed card wallet and available at a fantastic price."

Art wise, printing wise it looks fine. It feels cheap because it's all thin cardboard. Think of what a cardsleeve single is like, but with really thin cardboard. The back of the box is identical to the back of the regular album cover. Same exact track list and everything. Dunno about the disc as I haven't opened it, but I assume it's the same.

4.99 pounds from HMV.co.uk
Well, it was when I pre-ordered it. It's up to 6.99 now.
