I can kinda understand why adaptations would be put on hold because Tanigawa hasn't been writing the last few years, but that seems like an excuse. Plenty of anime have made content while source material's far ahead or when they've even surpassed it. As it is, there's a bit more than twice as much content to adapt than what we've got so far, so they're hardly starved for new material.
If they did more with the franchise, maybe the author would be motivated to keep going. From his point of view, I could understand losing interest if the rest of your team has quit on you for an easier money machine, if that was the case. The Anti-SOS, Surprise arc, all the Micuru character development with her manipulative adult self, and the appearance of Fujiwara are all worthy of the adaptation treatment. Maybe they're reluctant because a lot of this gets serious and isn't easy comedy fuel to appeal to the masses. Whatever the case, I don't buy the slowdown of written material as sufficient excuse. |

I wonder how I get a copy of this from Gamers so I can get that poster?

You're misunderstanding why people are saying this. It's not because there isn't enough material to write about. It's because light novel adaptions often happen to advertise the original light novel so it can sell, and usually when there is still new material to sell. Haruhi hasn't had anything written about it since 2011, and before that, it slowed to a productive crawl. Haruhi has lost its relevance, sadly. But I wouldn't count it out just yet, though. At least, not if we consider possibilities. Re-releases of the novels, selling on nostalgia, pure director/committee choice funding (especially with KyoAni)... Even FMP is coming back, KyoAni or not. It's not out of the realm of possibility just yet. |

I'm getting on the Hype Train! (Wait a minute, wasn't their YouTube Debut with the Haruhi-chan and Nyoron Churuya-san series?)

Those are technically different series, so it's understandable if that does not count. However, Kadokawa streamed each episode aired in 2009 for a week on their YouTube account (this was prior to the Kadokawa/Dwango merger in 2014 or the business connection in late 2010, so Kadokawa's anime side focused on YouTube advertising), so this is certainly not the debut on YouTube for the SOS Brigade. |

Having followed some of the later LN in the series, I'm not all that anxious to see a 3rd season. spoiler[The story seemed to me to get lost in a snarl of time loops and introducing a set of "anti-SOS" characters seemed a bit much to me.]Also afraid they might try to pull something like an "infinite 8-squared". If this came out before 2010 I might have bought a $46 audio CD, but not now. Seems like a shameless attempt by Lantis to get money from diehard fans.

You'd use a proxy service like http://www.fromjapan.co.jp and supply them the URL of the item at the online store such as http://www.gamers-onlineshop.jp/ - it adds to the price over what costs are from places like CD Japan but it is workable. Some Japanese online stores associated with retail chains like http://www.hmv.co.jp/en/ will ship overseas, but for decent packaging for international delivery, CD Japan and fromjapan are my choices. I ended up purchasing a lot of the music associated with the Haruhi Suzumiya franchise through CD Japan and would like to see the full listing of this new compendium release - some of what I liked were character songs or the music from the orchestral concert in 2009 or game music which wouldn't be counted as soundtrack material. |

I really do like a lot of the music from Haruhi, and the price for all the songs really isn't that bad. Based on the Gamers poster, I might end up getting this.

Oh, don't say that! Ruining the illusion already... But, I'll hold onto hope. 
Well, at least I got my Yuki Nagato anime, and I'd have no problem with another studio doing a Haruhi anime. Though, whenever Haruhi stuff comes up, it does make me wonder if we're closer to another novel. Wasn't there a comment from Tanigawa in a fanzine where he stated that he was working on another volume in the series? More FMP is coming...so can they please give us more Haruhi?!?!?!
As for the soundtrack, anime music has never interested me. |

I don't know what happened to Tanigawa. But if I were him, I rewrite the whole series and give other characters their own Point-of-view other than Kyon. |

This sounds like a conspiracy theory to me even but Crunchyroll just got that exclusive streaming deal with Kadokawa titles (http://www.crunchyroll.com/anime-news/2016/04/11-1/crunchyroll-and-kadokawa-announce-strategic-alliance) and they're co-financing new titles ...
I mean if Toonami can get more FLCL maybe CR is throwing some weight around to get some old titles they know their subscribers want. |

Possibly. It didn't seem like Haruhi made much of a splash when it was on CR though, and they don't have it listed that I could find anymore, so I don't know how much they really want to put into something like that. But yeah, I know you're just speculating to the nth degree. lol |

I strongly disagree. The hype Haruhi Hunting made just for more disappointment showed that there is still demand for more Haruhi, and that means there is still a market for it. I expect people will be buying this just for the chance of "more to follow" being more Haruhi anime. |

The Anime had the same episodes run repeatedly in an Endless Eight. Tanigawa stopped at The Intrigues. Who's fault is it? KyoAni. That's the reason why the new soundtrack won't sell. The only thing that it would sell is that the anime would be rebooted by another company like Production I.G or Gainax. |

I enjoyed the Endless Eight. What did Tanigawa stop at the Intrigues?
Even if I did not like Endless Eight why would that stop me from buying the soundtrack? And I really do not understand what you mean about Tanigawa stopping something, so I do not know if that is something that might influence my decision about buying the soundtrack, but I cannot imagine why it would. Even if I did not like the rest of the franchise I would still love the music. |
