Comes with a hardcover book and code for downloading extra material (Code Expires 1st August 2013). Downloading material contains all audio tracks (320 kbps, MP3), excepting the bonus track Superman, access to streams of EPK interviews from every album (except Leisure and Modern Life Is Rubbish, which instead is of two songs from both albums), commentaries about each album, plus all 32 issues of the fan club magazines (entitled Blurb) as PDFs.

CD18-19 Under The Westway is an earlier version than the one released elsewhere, (though not printed or mentioned on the release), as the song was re-recorded again after the box set went to print, with an alternative bridge.

DVD3-17 is mislabeled: it is a previously unreleased full-length version of the music video’s animatic, part of which was previously included in release Good Song.

The Japanese version of the box set Blur 21 (The Box) features a further 7 songs, 6 of which previously unreleased officially.

Whilst this is a very comprehensive box set encompassing the band's entire career with some previously unreleased and harder to find material, it is not a complete collection and does omit some b-sides and remixes from live E.P.'s and promo's plus one-off songs and covers the band did for compilation, soundtrack and charity albums at various stages during their career, nor any of their official live albums.
