      before buying at this horrendous prices here:
      you still get regularly prized copies almost everywhere. (emp.de, justforkicks.de, grooves.land and amazon only being a few shops)

        So we've got separate entries for Breath of Life, Forevermore and this box set, but we still need an entry for the Blu-ray, which is being offered separately.
