2000-04-10 Thread Paul Kowtiuk
The rep from Circuit City replied to a list member saying that he thinks he can hear the difference between CD source and MD copy. My question is, has he heard the lastest ATRAC-versioned MDs or is this something he noticed back in 1991? I'd ask him myself, but I don't have his email address. F
