Yeah you may have also noticed the nice big ad for Absolut Vodka right next to the picture for the story on the front page. Maybe the writers are getting some free samples
hey it cut off my last comment
I also said: You're right, recorded music is great for listening without distractions but no way does it sound as good as live music
To quote r3mix.net's Myths section
"2. Vinyl records are the best because they are analog while digital sampling ruins the sound.
Reality check: Vinyl is a very primitive recording medium. The artifacts, pops, and lack of dynamic range make Vinyl far inferior to CD. CD's sampling rates and 16-bit word length provide *more* information than the human ear can detect. Audio compression proves that you can remove up to 4/5th of the data from a CD and still come up with equal sound quality in a blind test using real world material."
Yeah listen to your record a month later when it's covered in dust and tell me it sounds better than a CD. No doubt live is better tho.

Ever been to the symphony? I don't recall sweaty screaming fans.
