I was wondering why there isn't any of the Beatles albums available on CD. This was a real disappointment to me, as I was looking forward to hearing them in this format. Is it because all of the albums seem to be in perpetual litigation over who-gets-what-royalties-for-which- song? Anybody have any clues, or of any sources for this sort of thing? Thanks.

It's an import label and carries a higher pricetag than most CDs. In general, old albums seem to be slow in coming to the CD format. I'm waiting for a number of old albums to come out. It may have more to do with the fact that the Beatles and all my other old favorites are not "mainstream" music today. Most kids don't even know that Paul McCartney was with a band before Wings. -- Dave Allen ihuxo!dpa AT&T Bell Labs Rm: IH 4A-409 Tel:(312) 979-(4378)
