And just when you thought they couldn't milk you anymore they go and release this. If other DeAgostini products are anything to go by you're gonna have to take out a mortgage for this lot :eek:

Note the apostrophe/pluralising horrors within the T&Cs ! :read:

"You will receive 2 issues and vinyl’s with your first and second deliveries (excepting subscriptions starting at issue 1, where you will receive your first issue separately, and subsequent deliveries will come with 2 magazines and 2 vinyl's."

It's McCartney Aid Part IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII

For just 10 pounds a month, you can help keep Paul McCartney from having to visit a food bank to make ends meet.... please, give now, so at the very least, we don't have to hear hime sing an extended version of Hey Fucking Jude yet again.

Haven't they just gotten through releasing The Beatles In Mono, And Stereo, in boxes, and individually, and CDs, and selling their catalogue to Apple (t'other one)?

...Jeez.... the greedy git!

I think I've heard enough from him about love now.... All you really need is more cash it seems.

Simples. Download all the Purple Chick deluxe editions for nothing.

Actually, no don't. That would be illegal and immoral.

This is all quite shocking. It's more than £9.99. That is just the first issue introductory office. I can't see us ever getting these on the database - who could afford it and have the inclination to do so?

Yup, can buy 'em cheaper in the supermarket in Australia - well some them were available for a while. Going rate on Amazon is about $20 USD also so they're not cheap. Well you do get a T shirt and wall hanging and a crappy maccazine.

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: )

Of course. And then there's the Past Masters and BBC collections plus maybe the recent Hollywood Bowl reissue.
