I am a little worried about the 4K musicvideos when they choose to only show Beat It... Why on earth invite fans to these arrangements if you do not wanna show the fans all videos so they could spread the word how good and crispy they look?

I can't understand how unproffesional this promotion campaign has been so far... - Still absolutely nothing in Denmark. No one has a chance of knowing Thriller40 is gonna be released next week. No ads, no internet adds, no billboards, nothing. No promotion what so ever...
Come on, they didn’t have enough time to prepare properly. Xscape was only released in 2014 eight years is not enough time for this estate to prepare lol. Anyways happy with the new song.

I'm more concerned about how "Who Do You Know" would fit in that remaining gap in the "0" lmao. No doubt another stellar font choice is on its way!
and what so special about this?
its just horrible quality. not even VHS quality.
This isn’t the proper 4K file. That should be obvious. Even then it’s clear this is better than what we have

I feel like some people will find something to complain about regarding the restoration job of these videos (I’ll probably be one of them haha) it’s just the name of the game when you are a MJ fan, we always nitpick lol
The estate has earned that but with the 4K videos we will not be disappointed if you carefully saw the leaks of the immersive experience contains the original 4:3 radio aspect with more information on the sides just as it happened with Thriller 3D

If they really didn't find the source material of billie jean there is nothing we can do other than make a new scan from the best possible source.

I was literally thinking is this the 4K everybody keeps raving about. I barely saw a difference.

Well yeah it's not direct 4k files we're looking at so it's not the best representation. You can definitely see a difference even in the blurry video, though.

The biggest improvement is the color calibration. It's actually accurate, no more oversaturation from being worn out.

Compared to this, pretty excellent fan articulation, no doubt the quality as well will be much crisper.

Yes, the colour difference is amazing. Really highlights how bad the versions we've had for years have been.

Technological limitations of the time and that MJ never wanted to remaster the videos in the 90's when History Video Greatest Hits came out

And neither with visionary singles That came out after the 2005 trial and Sony had offered it to him
