I do not like the cd remasters. But the 24-bit flac is something else entirely. They give me something to justify listening to, in spite of the tipped up response of the remasters compared to the vinyls.The difference is immediately apparent across all budgets, from my $18,000 system all the way down to my $1,000 system. Directly comparing the cd remaster versus the 24-bit flac remaster.
I'm a bit disappointed they were not more gutsy with the release. To advance this technology, they could have announted the Beatles remasters exclusively on USB and hirez optical formats. The Beatles was the last chance for hirez to go mainstream, and they did not capitalize. Just look how the movie industry has capitalized on re-purchasing on hidef.
