I doubt this will ever amount to anything, but there are several interesting outcomes that could occur:

A) Cleveland win and release a remastered Dead Ringer :up:
B) Cleveland win, thus any old live recordings Sony has locked away will never see the light of day :down:
3) Cleveland win thus limiting any compilation albums Sony can throw together :up:

I'd be surprised if things would be resolved quickly enough for that to happen sadly.

Option A and C would be by far the best.

Yet, I don't think DR sounds all that bad - if it came with extra tracks from the sessions, however - a remaster and re-issue would be more than welcome. No more compilation albums would be a great option too, unless they have new tracks like The Very Best Of.
