Yeah, I like to actually have a real CD to hold in my hands most of the time. The only exception I make is when I only want maybe one or two songs from an album

Will iTunes get stereo, mono, or both?

It may be a false alarm. No Beatles music is on iTunes and may never be. EMI Records has something against digital downloads. Yoko Ono claims the catalogue will be available on iTunes soon, but who knows.

I totally agree with Puffyrock, I still need the physical product. The solid CD. You can read the lyrics & notes, look at pics, maybe there's a foldout poster. Besides, in the past, I'd lost a lot of mp3 files from hard drive death.


Or vinyl, it's been making a comeback, right? Anybody else here collect LP's besides me? I've got about 1000, some guys I know have 2-4000 or more. Vinyl, anyone?

Heyyyy, should they maybe do a 12" version of the new record coming out?


Oh yeah, re: Beatles. Lotsa rights issues to work out before anything could ever be online there-- mostly because there are so many owners of the Beatles catalog. Including the Michael Jackson estate. It may take several decades, I think.

I have a couple turntables and maybe 200 or so LP's, but i'm much more of a CD person. Vinyl can sound fantastic, but you have to have top quality gear.

As far as the rights to the Beatles catalogue, Michael Jackson did own a chunk of the rights to the songs but Paul McCartney got them back after MJ died.


Oh....and my sets have arrived. I'll take a picture for you when i get home. Just becuase.
