- I have not only heard the Beethoven's 9th story, I read it in a magazine.
- (Ok, so you can't believe everything you read, it's still more substantial
- than, "I heard somewhere that...")
-
- I wish I could remember which periodical it was. Either Stereo Review
- or High Fidelity. It was a 1982 issue. They were doing a report on the
- latest addition to the audio market (the CD). Apparantly, on interviewing
- one of the engineers at Sony, he mentioned the Beethoven's imposed
- time limit was sort of an informal requirement for the new media.
-
- Take it for what it's worth. I'll try to find the exact reference, if
- anybody cares...
