After reading the linked article, it appears that there may be pitch problems on some LPs as well (or a bad turntable on an LP rip).
All the more reason to identify each LP pressing, and count revolutions between two known points (start of first and last chords) of the first movement when these disks are actually being played.
It is not possible to adjust the timing separately from the pitch without loss of sound quality. This is even true with solo instruments, but definitely true when multiple instruments play together. It could be the YouTube MP3 artifacts mask these defects. Accordingly, the use of any MP3 or otherwise deliberately mangled (compressed) audio should be forbidden as the basis of intelligent discussion. MP3 is for deaf idiots who are walking on the sidewalk and about to step off the curb into the path of an oncoming truck.
