The original 4000px cover has been omitted as it exceeds VGMdb's file size limit.

is this actually different from the original release? I checked the files and they all still have the crossfading between tracks

Only thing that's new is the second disc, and seeing this is more of an update to that album based on the site, the old entry should be updated to have second disc and 20th anniversary cover art included.

I didn't know they released FLACs for this.

Have they been doing this for all their albums now? I see Kong in Concert has WAVs.

I think third Sonic album might have been the last one without lossless files originally, but they've been slowly getting lossless stuff for the earlier albums if people still have their files and so on. I think they've been doing the same with normal stuff on their site, but those might not be out for peeps yet.

Yes, for most of them; a few of the oldest ones, we don’t have lossless available. For most though, we do! FLAC downloads are exclusively part of the torrent sets, and they can (legally) be obtained at https://ocremix.org/torrents

Our Super Street Fighter II Turbo album didn't have lossless either; several of the oldest ones didn't, and unfortunately there won't be any sort of re-discovery/revival of lossless for any of those.

For the most part though, we've had ongoing FLAC sets after we put out about 15 albums, we actually didn't go back and add them later. The first few albums had WAV sets before FLAC took off as a format. When we re-release Kong in Concert next year, we'll make FLACs available.

For the individual OC ReMixes, I have WAVs of less than half of them, about 1,900 (with lots of album overlap). One day, we'll do something with those.
