I prefer to buy my vinyls used and have buying vinyl as a treat. I doubt Apple will ever due it, but I am, potentially, a lonely voice against.

It was a 'faux' gold-vinyl in it.

Costed only 15 bucks.a-hard-days-night-john-2

I mean, records aren't gone yet, right? The soundtrack for an Elvis movie recently was released on vinyl, The video game Bioshock 2's soundtrack was released on a record. No reason to stop the flow.

I was about to post this article myself (How could it not be news?!), but then I checked the date of the article - yeah. Turns out 'new' is a relative term with Beatles news sites. a-hard-days-night-john-7

 

So anyway, my two cents: I enjoy buying records, but they're still a novelty to me. Finding a good copy I don't have is fun, so the idea of paying for the whole set at once kind of kills it. So since it's not my preferred method at the moment, I'll stick with the cds.

 

Besides, it would only be ...]]> Wed, 28 Apr 2010 04:10:35 +0100 mjb on Beatles vinyl reissues: what would you like to see? http://www.beatlesbible.com/forum/albums/beatles-vinyl-reissues-what-would-you-like-to-see/#p207 The albums http://www.beatlesbible.com/forum/albums/beatles-vinyl-reissues-what-would-you-like-to-see/#p207 Interesting thoughts Joe.

When I read it my initial thought was that they would have to be mind-blowingly out-of-this-world to convince me to buy. It took a great deal of 'tact and deplomacy' to get my wife to accept I was spending £360 for the recent remasters on CD ("Why do you want to spend that on music you already have.......surely they don't sound any different?" she said!).

The other big point of contention would be the question of how many people now have a turntable to play such things on?

Apple have confirmed that they're working on remastered vinyl reissues of The Beatles' back catalogue. Now, it's pretty obvious that they need to do something special to make people buy them all over again, particularly since the CD remasteres were touted as the collections to have.

Jeff Jarvis, head of Apple, told Mojo magazine: ""They are incredibly complicated in terms of getting the masters right and getting the packages right. ... How do you assemble them? How do you put them ...]]> Wed, 04 Nov 2009 17:27:04 +0000
