I downloaded the new Napster software and it looks promising- but right off the bat I see Herb Alpert has nothing there- Burt Bacharach has a ton though. Wonder why?
Tons of Carpenters stuff too- but they charge 9.95 per month and I'm still trying to figure out the whole deal- apparently they charge for some stuff differently. I'll keep studying it out.
SACDs are possible from any source...if anything, DSD will preserve everything that's there, and allows downsampling to other digital formats without loss. Even if the sources aren't perfect, it's the closest we'd ever get to hearing the master tapes in our own systems.
If it's going to be a "one time" remastering, I'd say get it released on SACD. Who knows if CD will last more than a few more years? Will we be looking for something better sounding five years from now? At least this would carry us into the future. And having them be "hybrid" would ensure we could play them today on standard CD players.
