Default VAST "Turquoise & Crimson" - official release sound any better than the mp3's?

For those fans of VAST out there...

I've been listening to my downloads of "Turqoise" and "Crimson" and wondered, since these are officially released now by 2Blossoms Records, if the official cd's sound any better than the mp3's I downloaded from VAST's website a couple years ago.

I know that T&Q is basically the "rough mix" versions of what got released on their "Nude" album, but are these "original CD" sound quality versions of the songs? I'm hoping so, because while I love T&Q, some of the music isn't as crisp sounding as it should be because of the fact that the mp3's aren't of particularly high bitrate (take a listen to the mp3 of "Falling from the Sky" and you'll see what I mean).

I have Nude, and the sound quality is fantastic; I am guessing that the sound quality on the "Turquoise & Crimson" release would be the same.

Looking forward to "April" as well, when that gets released on CD.
