i wouldn't say the re-release was that great. Sure, Illmatic is Illmatic and Illmatic is :o :o :o, but you can't count that, you'd have to look at the difference between the OG Illmatic and the re-release; better sound quality, ok you barely notice that, nice booklet maybe, but the bonus dis had only 4 (mediocre) remixes and two other joints...not all that IMO

it wasnt great because it was missing the originals:
the world is your remix w/ q-tip
one love w/ sadat x
halftime remix
the 2004 remixes were good, though.
-oh yeah, i forgot how nas made on the real a solo. the original version was w/ cormega and screwball.

yeah, kinda sucks, but it's obvious you won't hear Cormega on a Nas album no more. I haven't heard that OG, but word as for the OG remixes, they should've been on. Also, they could have put on more old Nas material, even shit like Live At The BBQ and other pre-Illmatic stuff IMO
