I Just read here that editions of Good Omens now comes with a “Pratchett on Gaiman” and a “Gaiman on Pratchett” addition. Sometimes the cachet of having an older edition of a book simply pales in comparison to getting a newer edition with extra stuff in it. This would be similar to buying the indie label version of a kick-ass album and feeling really smug about it when you hear it’s going to the majors, and then you discover that the major label release comes out with a bonus disc of unavailable b-sides and a DVD of a full length concert. Where’s my cachet now?

Your best option is to go to amazon.com and try to find a really cheap “used” copy if you really want to read the extra stuff.
This has happened to me before with DVDs and such, as you say.
