Good work! I'll bet it wouldn't take that much effort to re-tool the SE tracks for the original releases. Or would it?

I've tried contacting the producer of the tracks, WGBH, severel times regarding my possibilities to purchase these in some form, but so far I've not gotten any response!


That's one of the best arguments for expiring copyright right there. I'm not even visually impaired (well, nothing double-digit diopters can't fix...), but I'd want to see the AD tracks end up out there and widely available, just to show those turkeys they're doing people a disservice by sitting on their unbuyable product. It really shouldn't be this hard for anybody to track down and want to give money to the producers of something like this!

None of my business, really, but I hope you and klokwerk are working out some plan to make these tracks available to a wider audience. That'd be cool...
