Dark Side of the Moon

Does anyone have a list, or know where to find one, of ALL the various releases (vinyl, CD, SACD, DVD) of this album. Also, recommendations of your favorite for the various formats. I really like the sound of the discs in the boxed set "Shine On" from 1992. I haven't compared D.S.O.T.M., but the other CD's are far superior in quality (redbook) to any Japanese, European, or Mo-fi versions, in an A/B comparison. Does anyone know if there is an Australian pressing of D.S.O.T.M.? I've always been impressed by the fidelity of Aussie CD's!

I have no fewer than 4 versions of this on CD.
The Shine On Version from '92,the '94 remaster,the Mobile Fidelity Gold Mastersound version and the new SACD/CD version.
I haven't fully analysed them in my new system but before the '94 version was noticeably better than the '92 version.
The MoFi version has been mastered very quietly but does sound very good-not much between that and '94 if I remember rightly.
I need to really listen to the new version in more detail and go back to the others too.............
