A lot of classic Columbia (owned by Sony) scores remain unavailable, and there&#8217;s plenty of Fox scores &#8211; particularly from the stereo-friendly CinemaScope era &#8211; which have never appeared anywhere on CD.<br \/>\n<span id=\"more-2370\"><\/span><br \/>\nSame goes for Intrada, whose partnership with Disney just yieled the full score release of John Barry&#8217;s <strong>The Black Hole<\/strong> which, like <strong>Scream<\/strong>, is the first time the score is legally available on CD after decades of bootlegs, rips, and sundry. It&#8217;s taken more than a decade, but it&#8217;s nice cult and in-demand scores are making their way to CD, which I guess similarly supports a format the major labels once thought of as dying, dead, and doomed.<\/p>\n<p>Apparently the CD does thrive among collector, niche, and audiophile markets, and seems to have been placed just  a notch below vinyl, in terms of a physical audio format enjoyed by connoisseurs. I&#8217;ve taken it for granted simply because in most cases anything vintage will not be released digitally. The good: you&#8217;re getting the music in its best possible commercial format. The down-side: you&#8217;ll need extra square footage to house the stuff.<\/p>\n<p>I still think the ideal is to offer music in both formats, if not in tandem, then at a later date, simply because the idea of 500 or 1000 people on planet Earth being allowed to enjoy good music is somewhat exclusive, and runs contrary to the concept of preservation: you preserve for the purpose of propagation among fans and future generations, but what decices the limited runs are production costs, the need to recoup expenses quickly to fund current and upcoming projects, and perhaps studio labels preferring physical distribution because of an antiquated fear that digital = gateway to digital bootlegging.<\/p>\n<p>I hope the fear factor isn&#8217;t real, but I&#8217;m sure there&#8217;s a specific set of formuli which detail where maximum \/ minimum profits are achieved (known among professional circles as &#8220;Milton Knerb&#8217;s Rule of Good&#8217;), and perhaps the best example lies in the deluxe packaged monster set. It&#8217;s always existed, but the perceptible controversy surrouding Warner Music&#8217;s Tim Burton &#8211; Danny Elfman Box isn&#8217;t flattering to fans trying to equate quantity with cost.<\/p>\n<p>There are buyer comments on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Danny-Elfman-Burton-Anniversary-Music\/dp\/B0049ZQZAQ\" >Amazon.com<\/a>, which  reveal fans happy with the music &#8211; expanded scores with bonus audio and video extras &#8211; but some not particularly content with the price paid for a package that for some is reportedly falling appart, or arrived dinged and damaged after months of delays.<\/p>\n<p>Maybe  the best way to view the 15-disc Burton-Elfman set is one of ambition being slightly marred by the complexity of custom manufacturing, issues with flawed designs, and a level of hype that maybe didn&#8217;t justify dropping $500 plus shipping + customs duties, depending on your global location. The high cost isn&#8217;t for the CDs &#8211; some of the music was already released via La-La Land on their limited expanded sets for titles like <strong>Mars Attacks! <\/strong>and Elfman&#8217;s two <strong>Batman<\/strong> films &#8211; but for the book, packaging, and USB key.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve dropped $$$ for limited sets, but I find $200 is my limit &#8211; something Film Score Monthly probably realized when they released their 12-CD <strong>Elmer Bernstein Film Music Collection<\/strong> (with hardback booklet) for $199; the 15-CD <strong>Miklos Rozsa Treasury<\/strong> for $179,  the 14-CD <strong>Star Trek: The Next Generation: The Ron Jones Project (1987-1999)<\/strong> for $149; the 12-CD <strong>MGM Soundtrack Treasury<\/strong> (1959-1983) which originally retailed for $129; the 8-CD <strong>Superman: The Music (1978-1988)<\/strong> set for $119; or more recently, La-La Land&#8217;s 8-CD <strong>Medal of Honor Soundtrack Collection<\/strong> for $54.<\/p>\n<p>These are all big sets, but are designed to offer one core thing &#8211; <em>music<\/em> &#8211; which is why they will eventually sell out (as some already have), or in the case of the <strong>Superman<\/strong> box, are kept in print as non-limited sets because the production effort, global fan base, and continuing franchise via theatrical, TV, and animated streams ensures some consistent interest in the music.<\/p>\n<p>The Burton-Elfman set should&#8217;ve been designed not as One Big Thing, but as the ultimate set under which fans had the options of purchasing the main CDs and the book separately, leaving the packaging and bonus discs for collectors with deeper pockets. Apparently the book is gorgeous with plenty of interview material, but unless it&#8217;s available separately as a hardback, trade, or digital book, only a few will enjoy the labour of the book&#8217;s author, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.filmscoremonthly.com\/board\/posts.cfm?threadID=76221&amp;forumID=1&amp;archive=0\" >Jeff Bond<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s also another simple reason to keep a franchise and certain cult film scores in print: it staves off the bootlegging, which certainly affected scores like <strong>The Black Hole<\/strong> and Ron Grainer&#8217;s <strong>The Omega Man<\/strong>, both copied by pinheads and sold on eBay or via websites, or reportedly at collector conventions (memorabilia, film, genre, etc.) to unsuspecting buyers. These two soundtracks, released by Intrada and FSM, respectively, are non-limited, so the fans have a wider window to own them before they eventually go OOP.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Nuff said.<\/p>\n<p>Undoubtedly this fall will yield more classic, cult, and contemporary scores, as well as dynamic material from the videogame realm, which I&#8217;m frankly enjoying, because what&#8217;s composed is often as diverse as what&#8217;s written for feature films, TV, and animated productions. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.kqek.com\/exclusives\/Exclusives_Phillips_1.htm\">Winifred Phillips<\/a> [<a href=\"http:\/\/kqek.com\/mobile\/?p=871\">M<\/a>] recently scored <a href=\"http:\/\/www.winifredphillips.com\/lbp2ts.htm\" ><strong>LittleBigPlanet 2: Toy Story<\/strong><\/a>, so I&#8217;m looking forward to the eventual soundtrack album that features multiple idioms.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: white;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"style3\" style=\"text-align: center;\">Indigo&#8217;s Adieu to DVDs and CDs:<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Courtesy of an insider at Indigo, the bookselling chain will slowly cease carrying CDs and DVDs, as the format&#8217;s sales haven&#8217;t been as profitable as books and toys. The switch is already underway within Toronto, and if any DVD titles are to remain, they&#8217;ll be Top 30. Part of the problem is the gradual slide of DVD sales, and the issue of theft which has made carrying live stock pointless. Why anyone steals DVDs and Blu-rays anymore is a mystery (except for a quick addiction hit). The used market is glutted with multiple copies of SD and HD titles, and prices have plummeted to the point where selling a DVD to a used shop for $5 <em>is good<\/em>. That&#8217;s far down from the once-norman $9-$7 from 10 years ago.<\/p>\n<p>A chain getting out of home video isnt&#8217; wholly shocking, considering HMV has also reduced its selection of CD and video titles in theor Toronto shops, and there are murmurs the Yonge &amp; Bloor location may disappear.<\/p>\n<p>The one thing not in shortage these days are aspects of the home video market to blather about. Changes, stupid moves, and labels baffled by the dwindling profit margin of the once viable DVD format can always be discussed, but I&#8217;m more fascinated by the stumbles as major labels struggle to find a way to make old distribution models work. In a future blog I&#8217;ll blather about the Movies on Demand issue (I know, I&#8217;ve done that already, but there&#8217;s more nonsense to address), and why indie labels may be the savviest firms out there.<\/p>\n<p>Some majors are still supporting back catalog titles on DVD, but the MOD format is not being presented in a price-friendly fashion, and terms like &#8220;limited&#8221; and &#8220;collector&#8221; and &#8220;special edition&#8221; and &#8220;sale&#8221; are neing used like the CMYK colour schemes inheren to cover art. These terms have become interchangeable and have little meaning if consumers know they&#8217;re being mislead.<\/p>\n<p>Again. &#8216;Nuff said until the next blatherathon.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: white;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: white;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"style3\" style=\"text-align: center;\">The Score Tally:<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Below is the latest score tally, spanning Isolated Scores on DVD (remember those, back in the early days of DVD?
