[mb-users] Digitally (re-)master AR attribute

[Chris Bransden]

IMO it's always the same process. whether or not it's "digital" or not
depends on the time it was done (i imagine all CDs have to be
digitally mastered, no?), and they probably don't even bother
mentioning it for most current releases as it's pretty much a given.
