"de"mastered?

From http://www.warr.org/beatles.html:

Let It Be (1970) - Be wary. An album to be entitled Get Back was recorded months before Abbey Road [1969] as an experiment in filming the band "live in the studio," and then allowed to languish when no-one could agree on a finished product. A year later, with the film's release date nearing and the title now changed to Let It Be, the already-disbanded Beatles talked producer Phil Spector into cobbling together a "soundtrack." Spector, who had never worked with the band before, proceeded to butcher several songs by plastering on a full orchestra and a nauseating female chorus...

It was announced recently (sorry, can't find a weblink or the brin-l post -- from Jose, I think -- which is where I heard about it) that _Let It Be_ was going to be rereleased and remastered, removing all of the Phil Spector add-on garbage. Hence, "de"mastered.
