@inthehands @conniptions @mekkaokereke yes, exactly this. listening to digital masters that weren’t subject to the loudness wars (for instance, mfsl) is a very good experience, often sounding as good or better than vinyl. streaming services’ lufs-based loudness leveling renders the loudness wars moot, and people listen in noise canceling headphones, so these days, music tends to be mastered with much less of that horrible compression

@inthehands @conniptions @mekkaokereke and due to the fact that cd quality audio is outside the bounds of human hearing, we’ll never actually notice that quantization noise. 16-bit audio has a 96dB dynamic range (well enough to blow your eardrums out), and 44.1kHz accounts for nyquist-shannon at the maximum of human hearing plus a bit for the high pass rolloff at the top. audiophiles who claim otherwise are victims of pseudoscience and placebo marketing

@mimsical @amyhoy it sounds like they pump and dumped their own bank. see: greg becker sitting on the fed, greg becker calling for those looser regulations, greg becker cashing out days beforehand

@evan by talking 1:1 to lots of people with opposing views and convincing them of the truth, and having them do the same

@evan none of these is sufficient. it takes collective action, coordination, and government intervention.
