Surprisingly, they're only charging $10 for it, which was unexpected. It's also 1.3 GB, which is about 400 MB less than the version that is (was) on the Japanese store.

Could they have extras o_O??
No, they're just dumps of the PS1 games.
I think the reason is efficiency. I remember reading on the HK store in the product description that when the game prompts you to insert a disc, hit home and you should see an option to change discs. What they probably did was just copy all three CDs, as they're roughly 600 MB each and thus the 1.73 GB or whatever their file size is. However, this wastes space. The only difference between the three discs in FF7 are the FMV's. The engine, the assets for each level, the music, and all that stuff appears on every disc (which is why you don't need to switch discs if you go back to an older location). This takes up roughly 200 MB or so of space it would seem, hence the 400 MB in space saved by not repeating the same data three times. Also the US description does not include the same mention of how to change discs.
