Shows what happens when you give a barbarian a meter.
Yeah, but it's data. How good the data is may be open to interpretation, but it's a lot better than arbitrary statements about what format "sounds" better. I'll never deny that a clean, well mastered LP sounds good. I'll also not deny that a CD made with a decent digital master sounds good. Give a listen to Bob Dylan's "Modern Times" or "Love and Theft" for example. They're about as good as it gets (Dylan is a musical perfectionist and started producing his own releases with those). I guess my point is that the medium can only be as good as it is. Yes it is possible to do better. SAC-D and DVD-audio are potentially better. But there is little or no market for these formats. It has been proven over time that quality doesn't sell, what sells is convenience. ************************************************************************ * ==> QUICK LIST-COMMAND REFERENCE - Put the following commands in <== * ==> the body of an email & send 'em to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <== * Join the list: SUBSCRIBE COMPUTERGUYS-L Your Name * Too much mail?
