As some of you may have noticed, Pink Floyd 'Wish You Were Here' and 'The
Final Cut' are no longer available on CD. The story I've heard is that PF
claimed that producing CD's wasn't implicitly stated on their contract with
CBS, and have taken CBS to court over the rights. In the mean time, CBS was
forced to pull the CD's off the shelves, and they're rotting in a warehouse
somewhere right now, no doubt. So if you happen to already own them, you may
have a collectors item on your hands! Does anybody know more details about
this? Is Capitol/Harvest (Dark Side of the Moon, Meddle, The Wall) having
these problems with PF?
