I am a true music buff, and i am telling you that the point has been totally missed in all of these comments, the reason for remastering is simple there is more substance and as the technology for sound reproduction improves so does the need for more code(substance) , consider the frequency ranges that were available in the 60's to now , it has changed its diposition for a start, we used to think of music as a 1 speaker thing then a two then three with a center image(more code for separation required) then 5.1 dolby and then 7.1, 9.1 and so on, and adding new source code, or even purifying it, is a natural proggression in a music quality context (or the amount of sound bits available) consider this metaphor, if a contemporary painting has more colour and fine strokes does it not appear to have more clarity than an impressionist painting because the clarity in fine detail would exsensuate its own definable beauty, where as the impressionist painting is looking to portray an overall picture, detail would only serve to hinder this effect, but the contemporarys beauty is in the detail and the richness of colours wich in turn makes the return far greater in so far as thier is more to look at and as a consequence more to enjoy, the genius that was lennon and mcartney has been enhanced for a new more tech aware generation.These are sure fire steps to introducing the beatles to yet another generation, of wich many choose digital downloads for convenience and quality, the transition for us of a mature attitude will have the hardest time accepting these changes in the remasters, but the only constant in the universe is change, and having the 5.1 code is essential if you , like me , have 7.1 capability so as to fill the whole room with sound, and that requires dolby digital coding, i welcome this new era but i also must understand this is only 1 era change i talk of and there has been plenty of those and the future will be no diffrent in that respect wether we die hard beatles fans would like it or not , i tunes did not get where they are today by half heartedly releasing albums of sub standard quality, get yourself a burner, a decent copyable disc(verbatim) and then buy a theatre amp with all the accesories including optics and top quality speaker wire, your beatle experience will improve so dramatically that the only regret you will have is that you did not do i sooner. remasters for all origanal music, please!!!!!!!!!
