I finally ordered the Diana Ross and Marvin Gaye CD-4 from a seller in Japan off eBay. My first purchase from Japan! Wish me luck.
This brings me to a total of 120 quad albums

I just ordered these three Cheap Trick Japanese Blu-spec CD’s off of Discogs. I noticed after I placed my order that it was from one of importcds stores. I should have just gone and ordered from them. Oh, well, only spent a couple dollars more.

What exactly is a blue spec CD? Is it multi-channel?

No multi-channel.

Blu-spec CD
blu-speccd.jp
Blu-spec CD describes a Red Book Compact Disc manufactured by a proprietary process introduced by Sony Music Entertainment Japan in late 2008. Its name derives from the similar manufacturing process to that used to create Blu-ray Discs. Instead of a traditional infra-red laser, a blue laser is used for recording the pits on the CD master that is needed for disc replication. The blue laser purportedly creates more precise pits, which Sony claims reduces distortion in the optical read-out process.

I found this Thread on the Hassle-Hoffman forum too:

Personally, I don’t care if it’s Blu-spec or not. I just like the fact that it’s a Japanese manufactured disc.

It’s heeeerrrrrrrrrre!!!

What's the mastering info on that?

 

[Perp]

What's the mastering info on that?

Unfortunately, there is none. Only the booklet with the song lyrics. No credits anywhere. Except for the brief producer credits on the back of the jewel case.
