WMcD Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 Let me edit that. I guess digitizing the platter masters would be a pain but could be done (maybe). Then could sell the digital copies for enough to cover the expense. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thebes Posted June 17, 2019 Author Share Posted June 17, 2019 This was obviously hidden because of fears of law suits from the content holders, an awful word for those who inherited the rights to the music, since much of this stuff involves dead musicians, and songwriters.
