180grm Beatles

Why do they always insist on doing it wrong!? Why don't they do it right just for once and make them all analog remasters directly from the master tapes? Is it so hard for record companies like EMI to understand that people who like audiophile vinyl dislike digital remasters? Even it is the awesome full 192 khz it won't rival the real deal.
If, relatively speaking, small scale companies like Analogue Productions, MFSL and Speakers Corner can do it, what's stopping them?
And if they insist on crumming up theirs, at least let the beforementioned companies give it a shot as well with their own catalogues of Beatles albums. Surely they would if they could? I know MFSL did one in the 80's but those are now of course as expensive as UK first pressings.
I'd love to update my record collection with some truly great sounding Beatles albums but I'm not sure wheter I'll prefer many of these digital records over my current slightly worn originals.

I used a program called clickrepair when I made a few rips about a year or two ago. It automatically (according to parameters set by you) removes most non-belonging noise. A nice thing is you can see on display where it actually "alters" the recording and unless it's a very nosiy one it just swoops in here and there and picks out the baddies for you. It really seemed to be quite undestructive to the recorded music so if you need to clean up a rip made from an unminty record I'd recommend you give it a try. There should be a trial version, all functional but void after a week or so. I stopped making rips so I never kept the program but would if I'd continued making them.
BTW, what's with the wicker man picture?
