I couldn't agree more.  The Beatles first four albums were originally
recorded in stereo, their vinyl albums were stereo, the stereo master tapes
still exist, but the albums were re-released on CD in monaural.  Why?

Another problem is when someone re-mixes the original tracks for a CD
release, and usually totally changes the mix.  Nektar's "Remember The
Future" is a perfect example of that.  The CD mix is awful.

Sorry for the ot post.
