and his first several solo albums. After conflicting statements over the years, it was eventually revealed that the set would be released in three formats: CD, DVD and Blu-ray. The DVD and Blu-ray editions contain 10 discs (including ''Journey Through The Past'' released for the first time on DVD and Blu-ray) and a 236-page full-color hardbound book in special packaging, while those with the Blu-ray edition would receive free online updates in perpetuity (though the last update was posted in April 2010, with all BD Live updates eventually being pulled altogether in early 2016). The CD set has 8 CDs (Discs 00 & 01 fit on one disc, and Disc 09 is not included) and a CD-sized booklet. Each disc in the Archives was also available individually exclusively through Warner Bros. at launch.
CD, DVD and Blu-ray box set pre-orders from Warner Bros. also included a 7" 45 RPM single with "Aurora" and "Mustang" from Disc 00. In addition, people who pre-ordered the DVD and Blu-ray box sets received, in early May, a bonus copy of Disc 00 (Blu-ray only) so that they could "test drive" the contents. All DVD and Blu-ray box sets also included a card with a code for downloading MP3s of all the tracks in the box set. Of the 137 tracks on the track listing, 47 were previously unreleased. These included live versions and alternate mixes of previously released songs. Thirteen of the songs on this set had previously never been released in any form. The 10-disc sets included a number of 'hidden tracks' which were not included in the 8-CD set. The audio format on the Blu-ray version is presented in 24-bit/192 kHz stereo PCM on all discs except ''Journey Through The Past'' which includes selectable DTS Surround or stereo 24-bit/96 kHz PCM tracks. The DVD version includes a 24-bit/96 kHz stereo PCM track, while the CDs are in the standard 16-bit/44.1 kHz format.
