I've got all of them on order. Half of them should arrive this week, the rest after Labor Day. I've always been a Stones fan, but never really got around to buying a lot of their stuff -- I have only a couple LPs and one CD. While I expect the full collection will have some amount of uninteresting (to me) material, I wanted to (1) get all the cuts that I do like, (2) get it on SACD, remastered to boot, and (3) have the complete set as a collectible block. SACD should have had this kind of software support much earlier.
Are you going to buy the Rolling Stones SACDs?
I've preordered a few already. I suspect that the recordings, despite remastering, will be far less than what SACD is capable of reproducing. But it is exciting to see a large block of music from major artists come out in the new format, and that's why I'm buying. What do you think the major labels (especially Sony, that controls vast numbers of recordings AND manufactures SACD equipment) are waiting for? Seems logical to me that getting more software out would speed sales of the electronics and interest more of the general public in the new format. Releasing SACDs would also immediately protect the record companies from copyright infringement, at least until someone manufactures an SACD burner.
