I just don't understand it.... sgt. pepper and abbey road are still in the vinyl album chart, which will be these last set of 180g presses, released around the time of the box sets...

... so why do this now?

If it had been four or five years - at least - since they were last reissued, maybe you'd say it was to be expected as part of the usual Beatles programme, but given how tightly controlled the Beatles catalogue is, and was, in order to squeeze the maximum amount of bucks out of an already over milked catalogue, this seems not only to undermine the recent releases - and apparently stick two fingers up to those who bought them - it goes against the grain for Apple.

(Given that the other Apple (2) had to dig the Mp3 versions out of Apple1 with a stick... only being able to put them on iTunes recently.)

This can only have happened with Beatle agreement and consent - McC and "Peace and Love " Ringo... so they thought it was ok.... just feels like Beatles fans and collectors especially are being crapped on by these two for the sake of a few extra pennies.

Not impressed Beatle Ed!

(Maybe Paul really is dead! :laugh: )
