Actually spot on the delivery formats is almost unimportant compared to other factors involved in the recording and producing I'll take one of those good recordings/masterings on cassette tape any day :) Or maybe someones vinyl rip of the net ? looks like a completely bizarre thing to do until you are confronted with the facts that some things never gets re-released and are thus otherwise unavailable or the remaster for digital is very shoddy or simply the original tapes are lost or damaged to a degree where can only do so much . ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mnyb's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4143 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97545
