Here is information from the product sheet for 'Pacific Arts CD + DVD' (the DVD will be NTSC).

CAT NO: EDSX 3004 [CD + DVD]
FORMAT: CD + DVD
RELEASE DATE: 4th August 2008
CATEGORY: Rock / Pop

• This release gathers up some of the best of Nesmith’s work for his
own company, Pacific Arts. It includes different versions of the hit
“Rio”, and “Carioca” and “Magic”, as well as eight songs only
previously available on the long-deleted 1989 compilation “The
Newer Stuff”. Five of these eight songs were intended for the nevermade
musical “Videoranch”, whilst another two appeared in the
“Televison Parts” TV programme. The remainder of the songs have
been compiled from Nesmith’s Pacific Arts albums “Radio Engine”,
“The Prison”, “Tropical Campfires” and “Live At The Britt Festival”.

• The five promo videos on the bonus DVD appeared on Nesmith’s
Grammy™ Award-winning TV show “Elephant Parts”, although the
film for “Rio” was originally made to promote the UK single release.
This is the first time they have been commercially released in Europe.

• The booklet features previously unpublished photos from Nesmith’s
own collection, as well as extensive and revealing brand new
annotation by Nez himself, the first time that he has written at length
about this material.

• There will be ads in Mojo, Uncut and Record Collector

Why didn't he just reissue this as the "Newer Stuff"???

It's really no longer... Newer Stuff.

This is sort of an upgrade. There are a handful of tracks on this release that weren't on Newer Stuff. The DVD is basically the "Nezmuzic" VHS released on DVD for the first time.

I thought it was strange that it was titled "Pacific Arts" but it should be a nice release anyway.
