Amazon has a listing for the just-released-last-year
Abbott & Costello Franchise Collection as having a release
date for February 8, 2005. What gives? Was there a mastering
error or rights issues involved with this title, and now
they have to re-release it? Thanks for any help.

When this type of thing happens, it's typically the studio reissuing
the title at a lower price. There was nothing wrong with the
original release.

oh goodie even cheaper now maybe I can afford to add it So far I only
bought Vol 3 since its the various monster collection and those were my
fav's. Speaking of which, the only monster A&C I still need is "...meets Dr
Jekle/Mr Hyde. Is there any word on that title coming out?

The new list prices for volume 1 & 2 are now 19.98, sale for around
$14-15. When I bought them I think I paid around $16-$17.

Yup, that seems to be the case here. The MSRP on the first two volumes
have been dropped from $26.98 to $19.98.

There are three (including J&H) A&B titles left in Universal's
catalog. They haven't said anything yet about when and how these
will get released.
