The Pink Floyd 2011 remasters of 'Dark Side of the Moon', 'Wish You Were Here' and 'The Wall' will include, with the expensive multi-disc sets, a Blu-ray disc with hi-res versions of the albums in Stereo and 5.1.

I do hope that other record companies follow the lead of Tom Petty's Blu-ray audio discs of 'Damn the Torpedoes' and 'Mojo' - it could be the saviour of the business and take us forward rather than backwards. The failure of competing technologies ten years ago led to lower quality - with many CD remasters subject to 'the loudness wars'.

Unfortunately at nearly �100 each I shall not be able to afford to buy my umpteenth versions of the Floyd albums - but would be interested to hear if the standard CD remasters are better-sounding than the MFSL gold discs.
