admirable, Duncan.. however my cashflows so inconsistent I can't afford to tie up 100's of pounds on preorders every month, so I have to reluctantly give my business to the tax dodgers..
ps. WOW at this news, or what..!?! :yikes
(keeping all me pinkies crossed for a nice set of active surround mixes!)

cool. That being said, with tax and shipping included importCD is identical to Bull Moose $120. Moose still wins for me.
Didn't someone mention they may be inter-related or some such thing ?
No matter,, 'at's a grand price .
I dunno. didn't think so. ImportCD and DeepDiscount seem to be associated though.

Yup, importcds is only worth it if you don't care when you get it.
For the same price you know Bullmoose will ship on time.
Didn't go for the Expedited Shipping GOS?
Only $5.

I can only justify it Jon because this 2017 year I have stopped buying all the Prog Rock 5.1's and my collection is such that I realize I only listen to many titles once or twice, so between saving money, not buying much anymore, it frees me to purchase the iconic stuff from my youth.
To the poster waiting for a Blu-ray only, forget it.
And no one really cares if you or me or anyone buys it or not.
Call me crazy but I went for the Japanese version.
Yeah the shipping stung hard but I'm guessing that means the packaging is something special compared to domestic version.
But way beyond packaging and whether this song or that song was or was not included, I think the important point about this set is
that they went back to the multi-track tapes where all of original music was recorded and then transferred to a single single track of
the original 4 track tape that was used to master the final master tape.
This could yield clarity that no one has ever dreamed of for Sgt. Pepper.
As good as the 2009 remasters are this could take that to a whole other level.
And given a 24/96 resolution, surround or stereo this has the potential to redefine what we know of Sgt. Pepper.
That makes it worth it to me.
After reading your post here, I was ready to say "Aw F it, I'm going to order it". Then I got to thinking that usually on these big boxes I play the extra stuff once, sometimes never, and is an SHM-CD really going to be that much better for a very abbreviated listening? Then more rationalization appeared, and I realized that I probably will never listen to the stereo version if the 5.1 version was really good, and since that's on the BluRay the "SHM" does little for me, so I decided to just pass.
Heck, I have my MFSL UHQR Sgt Pepper sitting on a shelf and I think I played that probably 5 times since I bought it for $50 at a Crazy Edddie in Westchester, NY a million years ago.
I don't know. Maybe I am just losing my enthusiasm for stuff like this after all these years. While I am curious about the outakes and all, the 5.1 mix is what I really want and would actually listen to, so I think I will stick with the US box.
