Hitch-Hiker's vs Hitchhikers: The original BBC vinyl and CD releases use the hyphen. This changed from 2005 onwards to no hyphen as Douglas Adams' preferred spelling was with no hyphen. Interesting to note however, was that while the written books and trilogy were referred to without the hyphen, the actual fictional guide used by the characters within the same books included the hyphen.
