which they acquired from EMI and which, unless there is a remarkable u-turn, will be the only way to acquire it in due course. That is why you will not find Beatles on Spotify or Amazon as an example. This is what I mean when I say we should me more concerned about access than preservation. None of this music is going to disappear not that it is digitized, but if it is inaccessible or a corporation controls who can access it and at what price, that is cause for concern. And that is especially true in the theatre, where things tend to become obscure fairly quickly and fairly often.
