The CD (Single) must contain the featured track or a version/remix of it.
The CD (Single) must meet the minimum dealer price requirement.
The CD (Single) must have no more than 4 different tracks, although each song may appear in any number of different versions.
The CD (Single) maximum running time is 25 minutes (if more than one different song is featured), or 40 minutes (if one song is featured in multiple versions/mixes).

So the important bits that make a CD qualify as a CD Single.
No more than 4 different tracks (not counting any remixes of the same song).
No more than 25 minutes in playing time (for up to 4 different tracks) or up to 40 minutes if the CD contains remix versions.

This wondrous bit of ambient electro dub clocks in at a mighty 39 minutes and 58 seconds for the title track. There is a 3.08 radio edit plus another edit/ mix which clocks at 5.58. There is another different track (a 14.51 Towers of Dub Mad Prof mix).
In total this CD single has a sublime running time of 1 hour 3 minutes and 55 seconds. Does this make it NOT a CD single?
