How are we measuring this?

Greatest recording?
Greatest item created?
Greatest good for the recording industry?
Greatest good for society?

Greatest for the people of Pearl Jam, I assume.

It's gotta be. Imagine how sad the people of Pearl Jam would be if their dogs all ran away because they had no collars to attach their leashes to.

Think of all of the "My dog ran away, please play Speed of Sound in Philadelphia!" threads there would be on the Pit were it not for the collars.

I bet it was just a ruse to get people's lost dogs returned to Pearl Jam instead of their rightful owners.

And now you've uncovered the long seeded ploy to provide a catalyst to the sales of the b-side collection released in 2003.

Product wise, I agree.

Non tangible wise - fan club tickets.
