Depends a lot on which band and what genre of music. With Electronica, there is usually rereleases with different mixes and remixes ...and I like some of the ReMix variants of songs better than the original
A great example is Front 242s "Front By Front" album on Wax Trax in 1988.. The original version of the album had a remixed version of the song "Headhunter" ( the V.3 version) but not the original V.1 version which I prefer over the one that was on the album
When Sony bought out Front 242s catalog in 1992, they re-released the album with the V.1 Version as a bonus track as well as remixes of other songs, plus a few unreleased tracks: In this case, it was well worth repurchasing the album
