A rerelease is a work which is released subsequently to its original release by the original distributor with no deliberate modifications to its contents.  A reissue is a work which is released subsequently to its original release by a distributor other than the original one with no deliberate modifications to its contents.  When a work is rereleased or reissued with modifications to its contents, consider it a version.  See 4H.
