Isn't it sad we are in a time where we wish for tracks not being remastered? 

The original ycd cd with edits sounds better to me than fel remasters which are too loud but I know it's today's standards. 

It's nothing strange. It's the same with films and TV series. The collectors want "restored" films, but not "remastered" films.

I'm kinda shook we're getting the You Can Dance single edits. It's such an oddity in her discography. It's like....way down there in terms of her album discography even though I adore it. Like...It's at the bottom of the pile really in terms of significance huh? I really think we getting everything they have on digital. In four years time when the majority of the reissue campaign has completed its cycle there'll likely be scant few oddities that become streaming Holy Grail items. One of the biggest winners outside of Warner and Madonna, is Spotify. Once this lot is on Spotify Apple music will become completely redundant to me and I can't wait for the full switch. Now Janet, Mariah and Madonna are bringing their catalogue fully streamable Apple is defunct.

but Apple is lossless.

Wait, wait, wait.... I've never said they are sourced from Hi-Res material. I've said that the TIDAL Master files has real "music information" above the 20000 Hz, but I don't know if they are real information from the master tapes or the TIDAL algorithm "upscale" the 44100 Hz tracks (i'm talking when the master files are only available on TIDAL and not in QOBUZ).

My bad. Sorry about that.

It does make sense because a remastered film may include changing the film scoring or the audio mix in general and changing a couple of elements of the video portion too.

I do know that grain reduction was a thing back then but it made the movies look so fake looking.

Or adding a completely nonsensical extra scene with a Windows '95 version of Jabba The Hutt.

I think it's great that they're releasing stuff on digital that used to be promo only. Think of other things we might get. That theyre not sticking to commercial-only material.

I think they know that by releasing rare items, itll boost her numbers.

I say, keep it coming. No point in leaving that shit in the vaults when there's money to be made off of it.

When was the Bray interview recorded, my concern after listening to it a few times was that he gave the impression no one has approached him regarding any of the demos he has :(
