Yeah, it's too bad, 'cause there was a lot of their LPs I was
interested in, but who wants to buy 180 gm vinyl pressings sourced
from CD transfers at 30 bucks a pop?


Why are you upset about an example of fraud in the midst of a market
segment that is basically based on fraud?


I would have gladly paid 30 bucks an album for 180 gm pressings of
audiophile-quality music that I like if I know beforehand it's
sourced from the original analog master tapes.


With much classic vinyl, those original analog master tapes never existed.
The only masters that ever existed are digital.


Actually, only a very tiny potion of "classic vinyl" was mastered in
digital when veiewed as a proportion of total releases.

But thanks for displaying your arrogance/ignorance when it comes to
listening on what medium recorded music sounds best on (apart from
the original analog master tapes).


Spoken like someone who is very ignorant of the amount of classic vinyl that
was mastered from digital in the 1970's and 1980's.


Spoken like someone who can't prove his statements. Only a miniscule
portion of vinyl was mastered from digital in the 70s. The first
digitally recorded and mastered pop album didn't even come out until
1979. And there were only a handful of classical "digital" albums
before that.

Sorry, you lose.

Again.
