Default 2007 box set. (4oth anniversary)

Ok, I know we all have our opinions of what we'd like to see next year. New album, nothing, ETC. It is my OPINION that there will be a 40th anniversary box set next year with maybe 5 or 6 new songs on it. I could certainly be wrong, but here is why I think this. First of all, as much as I hate to say this, I dont believe a Fleetwood Mac album of new material like SYW will sell enough for the record company to get behind the band with enough financial support. On the other hand, a box set for next year would I think sell well. I mean how many bands have gone over 40 years together without some or all of their members dying. The only one besides Fleetwood Mac I can think of that fits that bill are the Rolling Stones, and they lost Brian Jones. People love nostalgia, as much as that sucks sometimes. ANd believe me Warner Brothers I'm pretty sure isnt interested in throwing alot of money towards a project that may or may not sell. especially in these days of record companies tightening their budgets. SO anyway, assuming there will be a BOx Set, here's what I'd like to see:

7 Cd's. 1 of completely unreleased material from pre '75, and one from post '75. And I'm not talking about rehashing stuff that's already been released. I dont know this for a fact, but I gotta believe there's stuff out there that no one has heard no matter how rampant bootlegging is. Then after that 5 cd's of released material. 2 of pre '75 stuff and 3 of post '75. That seems fairly equitable to me, balancing it out. I know alot of fans here, myself included thought the 25th anniversary set was pretty piss poor. Let's have some suggestions from all you knowledgeable fans on what youd like to see, and who knows, maybe someone important will read it and take some of them and use them.
