While these things are definitely true and would be responsible for a roll-off on both ends of the spectrum, the word "shredded" sounds worse than just ~320 kbps MP3/AAC/Ogg/WMA/ATRAC/etc. lossy (by nature) artifacts, no? It really sounds like <192 kbps MP3/WMA or XM/Sirus-like ~56 kbps AAC+/PAC, no? I only bring this up because I don't think lossly compression per sea is the problem as much as the bitrate used. Certainly even high bitrates have artifacts, but shredding at the top end? Am I reading too much into this?
