I've wondered that myself. I'm not an "audiophile" by any stretch, but I'm also far from being tin-eared, and I have always been very pleased with the sound of the Beatles' CDs (?)
But then, I was also happy with Rykodisc's David Bowie releases, which (apparently) weren't good enough either (at least that's what I heard after Virgin got the rights to his catalog).
