I really hope I live long enough to experience that!

I don't have that problem so I'm luckier. I do enjoy high dynamic-range
mastering and always encountered some albums that were unbearable in
that aspect... both on vinyl and CD. With this current loudness war
thing going on I should be unlucky too but fortunately I already have
everything I like most as good mastered redbook/flac. Some new stuff is
still good though. I would be really happy with 24-bit like 44.2/24 (the
sample-rate is fine with me/my ears.)

tell me where the distortion you refer to is heard best in that song
(time-code)? I'll try to hear it too!

cheers,
Nick.
