I wouldn't mind live CDs if they rearranged a lot the songs, like Madonna does.

What about "Vogue", "Green", "Love Song" (and Evolution... that is missing on the CD) so that's at least 4 new versions this year. On 10 tracks, the Made In Japan CD contains 5 songs never performed live before (Plus 3 on MIT)... so I am not expecting them to have different version. On the Power of music Tour, most of the tracks were re-arranged because it was part of the concept... Thought usually, they change 1-3 songs per concert. It would be way too much work and money to do a bunch of new arrangements for each concert... She does 3 concerts a year... Madonna does one concert every 3 years...
Also... even if it is edited, vocals and arrangement sounds really different in live version. Still the price is still crazy too expensive.
