According to
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-24441979
Universal plans to issue 200 albums in 14 countries "very quickly".
At launch, the UK catalogue will contain albums such as The Velvet Underground and Nico's self-titled debut, Queen's A Night At The Opera and Marvin Gaye's What's Going On?
in an admission of modern listening habits, albums purchased in the Blu-Ray format will come with a free copy of the lower-quality digital version.
"Blu-Ray is a copy-protected format," said Murphy. "If someone has spent £15 on a product, he should have the right to put it on their iPod and listen to it when he's doing his fitness programme."
Eventually, the Pure Audio files could be distributed digitally themselves - but with a four-minute song needing 1GB of storage space, Murphy said it would be "three to four years" before that was a reality.

Don't make me boring, dear;-)
I wouldn't be surprised if Queen released their entire back catalog on this format, albeit in stereo so no need to do any remixing.
This maybe not such a bad thing in lossless audio and should be better than the CDs which they have attempted so many times to squeeze as much as they can out of the PCM format.

I'm wondering why a homophobe calls other people "dear" and "darling". But yes, the product IS "boring"

I think I have right call so I want and it doesn't matter homophobe. And I am not homophobe. I just hate AL so much.
Hating AL is the way to go.
Phew! That was funny as hell!
The ANATO-blu-ray is already available in the Netherlands through bol.com for €22,99. After a first quick listen it does sound a bit "fresher" but that could be just "wishfull listening". It also comes with a code which can be used to download the songs in "high definition format". The soundoptions are stereo and 5.1, both in PCM 96/24 and DTS-HD-MA 96/24.

Thanks for useful info!
if only they will put Queen 11 out in this format or DTS....ah well.....we can dream about it.....
it would be better they release queen II on this format
Is anybody surprised that the only BluRay CD [sic] is the same that's already been released on every other format?
That's the one where all the work has already been done, unlike Queen 11 [sic] which would require Brian and Roger to "get their arses in gear".

You hate someone you've never met?
And if you must hate someone, surely there must be worse people for whom such hatred may be justified.. ?
Looking forward to your always-rational response..
