That's what I was afraid of. I was also going to say that they must be remastered as they are available in 24-bit. |

In fairness, by the mid '90s, much of the music was
already getting brick-walled. The earlier stuff has, unfortunately, lost its dynamics. What good is 24-bit when everything has been squashed. :( |

Bought the "Someday" digital EP, and while I don't feel
it's badly brickwalled, it's definitely got some hard limiting on it. The degree of limiting seems to vary by song. There doesn't seem to be any limiting on the Pianoapercapella at all, while the New 12" House has pretty severe limiting. I've seen worse, though. I've actually seen a lot worse. |

There's quite the market for rare Madonna fan club only, limited stuff, and even bootlegs. I did see the Japanese singles collection online with a sticker from Tower that said $199. That was a guy who was asking $4,750 but I think it could realistically go for half that. |

I lost that much on Gamestop stock a couple weeks ago. In retrospect, I'd rather have a Japanese Madonna box set. :D |

By the time you find out about a stock, you're too
late to the game. A lot of it's hype especially in short term gain stocks. These singles were all limited items that few stores carried. Many mixes were promos, imports, and/or mislabeled mixes. If you heard it, you probably wouldn't know which mix it was without a sound sample. I waited until youtube was popular to go for many of the cd singles as I had to figure out which mix I was interested in. I also quickly learned that longer isn't usually better!

Makes sense. I bought all of the 12" singles when they were current, so I've got my own favorite mix of each song. Madonna's one of the few artists whose remixes could stand on their own for being just as good as the original versions, and in some cases, better. |
