I'll se what my " friend " can do.. Imho , these old things should be public domain by now. The original artist has already made all money he will ever get and the record companies have got what they indended to get in the first place. If some of you are rigth and you probably are, that the artist gets nothing in this case,( not that jagger actually needs more money ;) but anyway ) . Then it would be more moraly corrupt to pay HD-tracks than get this elsewhere ? You can always send money to the artist some other way ,or buy some merchandaise you now they profit from. And the remastering people got paid when the SACD was relesead. HD-tracks Think they have a goldmine here, they can leach of a famous act like the stones and get almost all the money for it. Another more humble pricing strategy would be advisable in this kind of release of classic material. Then opinoins would be the oposite, that they are doing a great thing to make this avaible via download. -- Mnyb -------------------------------------------------------------------- Main hifi: Touch + CIA PS +MeridianG68J MeridianHD621 MeridianG98DH 2 x MeridianDSP5200 MeridianDSP5200HC 2 xMeridianDSP3100 +Rel Stadium 3 sub.
