- this is really depressing for future prospects of lossless music
available online.  There's really no incentive for anyone to do it and
if results like this get noticed, even less.  Yes, I know in a
double-blind test I may not be able to hear it.  I believe I detect a
"softness" in MP3 though.  However as I don't adhere to magic cables,
Shakti stones, C37 lacquer or PWB foils, allow me this little bit of
placebo...

- audiophiles don't seem to have that much better hearing in this
study:
