One Other Thing

One other thing about the Beatles box set: the packaging. I'm not a big fan of cardboard, and getting the CD's out required some delicate maneuvering. Most of the time, if it's a record I like, and it comes in cardboard, I'll replace it with a jewel case. With this Beatles set I had to double check everything to make sure there were no scuffs. Only found 1 but the CD played fine. And I've also decided once and for all to keep my original 1987 CD's. Besides the first four of those are in mono, so I get a quarter of the mono box.
