   you had CDs in the 70s?  wow, talk about ahead of the curve 

I think it'll be quite interesting to hear any Fab 4 remasters if only to experience the music in a new way or to hear things previously buried.. the issue is not that they'll be better  than the original versions, just different..I do hope George Martin was involved in some way, according to Rolling Stone it was done by Abbey Road engineers over four years with "new technology and vintage equipment to preserve authenticity and integrity"  ..they'll have original UK tracklists & art, expanded notes (painfully missed from the current CD issues) and some will be embedded with brief documentaries, and a mono boxset as well.

	With the Beatles remastered collection coming out. I was curious to know how many of you care about the production of cd's. For me I still like my old cd's from the 70's even if it was not perfect. And I prefer keep my money to buy new versions of my songs on DVD than have to built my collection of favorites again by purchasing the remastered version. But in the case of the Beatles, I don't have a single albums of them, so maybe it's time to buy the new versions. What about you?
