Yes, “El Periodico” and “El Mundo” are two different newspapers without any relation. First they were released by “El Periodico” and a year or so latter by “El Mundo”
I’ve seen copies on sale in Brasil; I don’t know if they exists a brazilian release or they are regular portuguese copies exported.
The portuguese release came with a nice box to contain the books.
The “El Periodico” releases were minilp format but not “El Mundo” (they had a tray in the book to contain the cds)

This is a subject I tried to research a few years ago, but I didn't get anywhere due to lack of information online. I know that there are five such series:
- Spanish "El Periódico" series
- Spanish "El Mundo" series
- Portuguese "???" series
- Italian "Corriere Della Sera" series
- Italian "La Repubblica" and "L'Espresso" series
Later I will have a look at the information I gathered back then and post here. Maybe we can complete the list.

A question to the Spanish collectors. Please confirm to me the following:
- The "El Periódico" reissues come in mini-LP sleeves, that are sealed with the book. See example below.
- The "El Mundo" reissued are housed inside the book on a plastic tray. See example below.
- And what about the DVD releases? Is it true that they all come in their original DVD cases? If so, then how can we distinguish between an "El Periódico" reissue and an "El Mundo" reissue?

Sorry I didn't see this reply when I wrote my last post. The question remains, what is the difference between the two issue when it's a DVD?

But the books are different, right?
