Compare the colorized version of "The Maltese Falcon"to the original black and white release of this 1941 classic Bogart film. The colorized version looks absolutely ridiculous. The colorizing trend was a futile attempt to make great classic films more appealling to a younger audience and stimulate sales.

Maybe the Beatles catalog should be left as it is, not remixed for maximum download impact.

However I would love to hear a high resolution DVD-A or SACD version of "Sgt Peppers" in 5.1 and/or 2.0.

Always thought it would be interesting to have the Beatles multitracks available as HD DAW files, so you could mix your own versions... just fors kicks
