New Beatles remasters

I bought 6 of the new remasters today in CD format. Abbey Road, Let It Be, Revolver, Sgt. Peppers, Rubber Soul, The White Album. They are discounted at Target to 11.99 buy 2 and get a $5 gift card. Great music and much more natural sound. You can play them at more realistic levels without the compression and glare of the lousy original releases. Your thoughts?

Point of correction. George Martin had nothing to do with this project.

He produced the original recordings but had nothing to do with the current remaster project.

That's correct. He had nothing to do with this project. Good thing as he is suffering from a significant hearing loss.

Is there going to be a remastered vinyl version? I read that in the CD remastering process they removed tape clicks, microphone pops and excessive sibilance so there was some digital manipulation. If this is done on the vinyl versions this would not be a pure analog remaster. Also read about possible blu-ray audio version. Anyone know? I am reminded of the film Men In Black where they showed a new alien technology that was going to replace the CD. Tommy Lee Jones's character then says: "Now I have to buy The White Album again"
