As a bonus, the disc is accompanied by a DVD that features the digitally restored videos for "Thriller," "Beat It," and "Billie Jean," plus the Emmy-nominated performance of "Billie Jean" from the Motown 25 television special, which introduced the world to the "moonwalk" and launched Jackson into superstardom.

This second re-issue of Thriller is a better re-issue than the 2001 Special Edition. The sound quality is a lot better. But I still find it a tad lacking. It is missing "Can't get Outta The Rain" Which appeared on side 2/B of the 45 release of Billie Jean and "Got the hots" (Which is appearing on the Japan Release). Those 2 tracks should have been added. I wouldn't be surprised if the album has a 30th anniversary edition 5 years later with those 2 songs adeed. Also, The Kanye West Remix of Billie Jean was a tad disappointing. Kanye gave the song a great new beat but I was hoping to get a rap verse out of him on the track. The Fergie remix to Beat It wasn't too bad either. I have nothing against Fergie but I think that P!nk would have been a better choice for the song. Anyways, Like I said, this is a big improvement from the 2001 Special Edition. I think it's well worth getting for the better sound quality.
I think these figures speak for itself.
