it's like asshat said... most of those bands are using different tunings. 'appetite for destruction' is a half step lower than standard. the first hendrix experience album is standard, bold as love is an even mix between standard and half step down, electric ladyland is about 75/25 mix of half down / standard, even voodoo chile (the long version) is tuned a full step down. if you try playing queens of the stone age you'll be dropping two full steps to C.

at the same time not all tuners are made equal. your current device might be saying you're 'in tune' but whatever nugent was using 35 years ago (probably drunken ears) would likely disagree.

whatever you use to play the discs or the file types will not affect this issue.
