I just stopped hanging around on Steve's forum because the thread on +1 went to about 12,000 posts of which 11,000 were bitching about the wrong selections, lousy surround and the fact that two measures of a piano overdub on ADITL were missing. Endless squabbling like little children. No the set is not perfect but it is still an amazing value and a historical record. I hope this forum doesn't descend into a similar chaos. The set has been released. All the endless bitching will not convince Apple to recall the set and fix the problems. It is what it is. Get over it.

Fortunately most of the squabbling is about things I could care less about.
You mean you don't care about hip operations and the side effects of Viagra
Anyone know why the start of "Come Together" is cut in ever so slightly (missing John's vocal)?
I noticed this when I created MKV files of all tracks on the Blu-ray set. All of the other tracks were fine. I'll have to re-rip. Thanks.It's not cut. Different players take different amounts of time to switch resolutions. It is not noticeable on most cuts since they start with girls screaming and such. To find out if I am right simply hit the button to restart the song after it has started and it will start properly.
Don't badmouth those late-era, super-compressed redbook CD's. They make great woodpecker repellent. Just hang them from your gutters to keep the birds from drumming on the wood siding of your house.
There is no way the Beatles CD remasters can be classified as 'super-compressed', sorry. They just aren't.

Note that Plan9's original post referred to the CD in the Beatles 1+ set, and that it doesn't sound nearly as good as those 2009 remasters. So I totally agree with you. I even told my wife not to play those 2009 remasters, stereo or mono, in her low-end CD player!
Honestly I'm not sure I understand what you're saying.
Guess I had better respond. Sorry, I should have been clearer. What I am saying is:Honestly I'm not sure I understand what you're saying.
Guess I had better respond. Sorry, I should have been clearer. What I am saying is:
1. I agree the remastered 2009 Beatles CD are not compressed.
2. The CD from the Beatles 1+ set sounds like it utilizes excess compression, typical of run of the mill late-era CDs that compete in the volume wars.
3. The 2009 Beatles remasters, both mono and stereo, are so good that I don't want my wife playing them in her cheapo CD setup that is near the treadmill. (That machine is subjected to all sorts of debris flying around from the rubber mat on the treadmill and I don't want the debris contaminating The Beatles CD's.)
