I'm not particularly interested in a debate over the job title of those responsible for the general state of recordings these days. And I'm not particularly convinced that some in the industry are blameless; pressure to conform may be an explanation, but it is not a justification. However, my comment was meant as a humorous jab, not a statement of fact, so I think I'll continue indulging my uninformed prejudices. ;-) -- mlsstl ------------------------------------------------------------------------ mlsstl's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=9598 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=82050 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
