Thriller 40th Anniversary

I had the brilliant shower thought that they might be waiting to release Billie Jean 4K on November 30th, the day the original album came out 40 years ago.

I had the thought it'd be the day the video aired, March 10, 1983, but I don't wanna wait til next year.

Thriller was released november 30th.

Why is T40 not released on November 30th ? - is there anything special about november 18th? Or is it just a coincedence and close enough?
I do not care about the date, just curious if there are any thoughts behind the date.

Seeing that MJ was at one juncture in talks to create a theme park and casino, it’s not at all out of sorts to then do so. But that’s the issue with MJ never exacting his wishes in a will—all we can do is guess.

That's basically what every discussion comes out to, we don't know cause MJ never said anything. It's literally a matter of choice every time
 
We really out here trying to argue that an MJ based casino could be a good thing because MJ never said if he wanted one built or not, lol.

Sonic games had casinos, an MJ inspired one wouldn't be the strangest.

What started all this talk about MJ casinos anyway?

Did anyone get their MoFi/SACD?

I did a few days ago, and I love the job they did! This was my first SACD after hearing about the medium for years, so I finally bought a player and was blown away by the separation of the aspects of the songs, all the instruments and vocals really "breathe" better, as opposed to having some places where things can sound a bit muddy on previous versions. Prior to buying the T40 SACD I was under the impression all SACDs were more along the lines of a 5.1 surround mix like a DVD-A release, but I quickly educated myself on the topic, especially how MoFi are kind of more known for their amazing stereo mixes instead of full on multi speaker presentations. The stereo mix actually sounded like surround sound at times!

I also grabbed the MoFi vinyl which I haven't had a chance to sit and really absorb yet, but I'm looking forward to it when I have a bit of uninterrupted time.
 
I think if MJ was alive, he would sign off on most things. He was, an entertainer, and wanted to encompass all entertainment. He hoped to do filming/directing, and things like Marvel was in his worldview. If the guy decided to star in Miss Castaway then he'd definitely do something like a casino.

I think the bigger question is why, and what is the moral ethics of supporting a horrible practice like gambling. But that's a lot deeper a question.

All I know is MJ had a larger worldview than simply singing/dancing for his whole life. And that could've meant things like this.

I read somewhere that the One-Step vinyl and SACD purchases don’t count unless they’re shipped during the tracking period. Who knows how many thousands of sales Thriller lost because of the shipping delays?

Don’t get me wrong, #7 is outstanding for a 40 year old album, and is a huge success. But it sucks that the totality of the sales weren’t applied.

That’s not the point. It’s a commercially released album legally owned by Sony. Posting material like that could get the site taken down.
