[referring to Beatles CDs] You may be right when it comes to Sgt Peppers, but the earlier releases quickly had adhesive stickers slapped on them by EMI correcting the ADD to AAD. I think this is borne out by the fact that some were released in mono, although remastered (possibly digitally faked) stereo versions were in existence. I recall much discussion in music production magazines when these releases were first made because of this point. Greg Ryan (gregr@cs.su.oz.au)
