Doesn't anyone see the absurdity in people arguing about the sound quality of MP3 files, when the music they're listening to has been run through distortion pedals and bit decimators? "Oh, I can't stand how the sound stage collapses when I listen to this Autechre track, which was made by sampling someone coughing, timestretching it to five minutes, cutting it up into synthetic drum hits, sequenced, downsampled to 4 bits, and then run through a digital reverb." kent williams -- kent@avalon.net http://www.cornwarning.com -- Iowa's First Techno Record Label http://www.mp3.com/chaircrusher -- tunes --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
