Thank you, Mr. Bond.
Actually, having the titles without Shatner's VO was what I hoped for. 
Great in the episode, but we are, of course, all about the great music.
Problem is, I now want it to be late November, with the 15 CDs on my desk, and the music playing.
I know, Star Trek and Soundtrack fans/collectors are a picky, pushy, impatient form of obsessive-compulsive life.

Also, while this was answered earlier, no, we're not including the terrible "City on the Edge of Forever" replacement music! Hearing that once was enough...
I don't know if I posted this before, but the replacement music was actually by...J. Peter Robinson!
Lukas
p.s. oh it seems I did! sorry

Are your questions rhetorical because I don't think anyone here is capable of answering them... LLL is producing a soundtrack set, not a DVD set.
Really? I didn't notice...
Of course I didn't expect a definite answer here to my questions (which weren't directed necessarily at LLL), I was looking more for suggestions and speculations (provided in the meantime, at least partial, by SchiffyM and OneBuckFilms - thanks for your informative input!). Besides, the soundtrack also is part of the DVD releases, and when producing this definite TOS score collection, you have to see the whole picture, including the history of the presentation of the show (original broadcast, syndication, VHS/DVD/LD/Remastered/BluRay releases).
Now I rest my case...

There's no reason the studio would have lost the rights to any of the other recorded music for Trek, so it must have been an issue of not having the original music element or maybe not having the time to track it down.
I would also suggest the possibility that it was simple human error.
This is my thought as well. The simplest explanation is probably the correct one. It was fixed as soon as the season sets came out, as was the missing scene from The Tholian Web. Somebody oopsed. Lots of oopses on the Blu-Rays too that I hope will be corrected for future re-releases.

After "Star Trek", they will release the complete scores for "Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea" which have connections with "Star Trek".
I would be SO okay with that.

Judging by the buzz this set is getting here, I have a feeling that 6,000 units may be insufficient.
I'm still impressed that with this set, and the movie score releases, we are getting everything there is from Star Trek.
What was, a few years back, a set of holy grails, is now out, or expected to be out soon.
There is a LOT of fantastic music being given the presentation, preservation and love it deserves, and it makes me smile every time I look at my CD shelf, or play one of my CDs.
To borrow from another musically rich property:
This .... this IS history.

There was a statement made earlier too that someone wished we'd have left off all the unused music from the set. Okayyyyy – so you don't want more music from "Amok Time"?
Um, yes please! I want more of Fried's music from Amok Time! Me me me!
Please sir, can I have some .... more?

No Shatner, no sale! JK! Though weird as Nimoy's voice over was included on the remastered WOK.
And here I was hoping that they would include end titles of TWOK on this set without the voice over as a bonus. (Ha! Sorry, Lukas.)
This .... this IS history.
Ok, fine. I won't blow up the TOS set with my rocket launcher. But don't blame me when it makes your head explode (or your face melt).

Who has watched the black and white pilot of "Star Trek"?
Was it better?
I'm not sure there's any reason to watch it in black and white.
It was only released that way because the color negative had not yet been located in the Paramount vaults. The footage alternates between a scratchy black and white workprint and the color film used in the two-part "Menagerie" episode. It's just a novelty now, I guess. On my DVD set it includes introductory remarks by Roddenberry, but that's pretty much the only reason to watch it, as far as I know.

Pretty much what the restored color print was, but in B & W.
Nothing to see there, I'm afraid ...
