This doesn't often happen
Broadly, Simon Heffer and No Rock And Roll Fun are more or less in agreement on something:
Yet it fills one with sadness that so great a recording studio may soon be frozen in time as a museum. What will happen to our fine living composers – and we do have one or two – when they wish to be recorded? On the steps of what building will today's Elgars stand with their young prodigies? At this rate, we shall soon have to revert to the old wartime morale-boosting practice of having recordings of what are deemed to be important works made under the auspices of the British Council. Otherwise, a whole chapter of our culture would close.
If Abbey Road has any value, it needs to be a working recording studio and not a recording-studio-themed visitor attraction.

And if only its current owners weren't people who don't actually understand that the word "value" has more than one meaning then perhaps they wouldn't be in this situation in the first place. Unfortunately the general public aren't much help either as one often suspects that people think Abbey Road is just a zebra crossing.
