Nine Inch Nails not from masters says Trent...

[ApolloZero]

I thought this tidbit was interesting:

It usually pains me to agree with Nine Inch Nails honcho Trent Reznor – the musician who rallied so hard against the superficiality of the Grammys had no problem picking up an Oscar for the score to The Social Network last year – but his latest cause is a particularly worthy one. The musician took to Twitter to urge fans not to buy a recent reissue of Pretty Hate Machine that Universal put out. The set was not sourced from the remastered tapes which were released through UMe last year, nor did the bonus track on said remaster appear. Look, maybe I’m just naive, but what does a label stand to gain from reissuing a catalogue album so soon after re-releasing it in the first place?

Perhaps but nine times out of ten, a reissue of the original masters is much better than any remaster. Most remasters now are loud, compressed rubbish.

OK, so how do you get the proper remastered one?
