I love both the Varese and Label-X CDs. But they never talked me out of getting the TOS box.
On a side note, though, watching and listening "The Doomsday Machine" is an interesting experience when you do so and have "Jaws" in mind.
There is a certain "Jawsesqueness" about it.
Cheers

I love the two sets of RPO recordings, and for many years they were my TOS bread-and-butter.
But the box set is an enormous embarrassment of riches. Even stuff I wasn't really looking forward to ended up being quite interesting once I got it. Yes, there are some parts of it that I like more than others, but there are so many facets to the different approaches each composer took that I don't see how the RPO recordings could be “all the music you need.” There is just not enough Gerald Fried and George Duning there, for one thing. And it's all in crystal-clear mono sound (except, obviously, for “The City on the Edge of Forever”).

I just acquired the Labe X TREK SYMPHONIC SUITES.
This volume contains the classic score for THE ENEMY WITHIN which I mistakenly thought to be a tracked episode.
if you just figured that out now, I can see why these abbreviated re-recordings were good enough for you. I dont think you know what you're missing, and therefore why fans wanted complete original music.

I had to qualify my comment, it sounds too critical.
I am used to it
Seriously, I am overjoyed that TREK fans have in their sweaty, greasy palms the entire collection of scores.
They also were the first fans to have the complete series on vhs.
I am/was jealous (even though i am a fan meself)

The Original Series music really comes down to a few basics. 19 discs and you're covered:
