Interesting about LZ1, but it doesn't explain the others.
Channels reversed in streaming versions of older albums
I was going back and forth between the turntable and streaming, comparing some albums and songs. I noticed on Al Stewart Year of the Cat, the channels were reversed on the streaming version. Then I semi randomly pulled out Clapton Unplugged, and the same thing. It didn't matter which music service I played it from, Amazon, Qobuz and Tidal.
I did verify with the HFN&RR test record that my turntable is correctly hooked up. Then I found a test record stream from one of the services, and it too played correctly with the left/right test.
Is this a common thing? It's kind of annoying, you'd think the digital transfers/remasters would have gotten it right.
