Sure.

A "linnie" is the name given to a Linn fan boy, in other words someone
who loves all things Linn. Based on your statement "I think they are
far more entitled to call their downloads genuine 24/192 than
HDtracks." I felt that you fell into the category of a "Linnie" since,
as I explained in my prior post, if the 24/192 files are sourced from
analog masters and converted to 24bit/192kHz h-rez digital files they
are just as much "true" hi-rez digital as any other hi-rez digital
file. There is nothing magic or special about the Linn hi-rez files
aside from their super high price and Linn's massive marketing
mumbo-jumbo. I'm sorry if I offended you.

And yes I did forget the smiley face :)

Believe me I'm not trying to defend HDTracks but it's one thing to
complain about their high prices and quite another to call their high
resolution files somehow inferior to those being sold by Linn. Linn
offers very well recorded music made by musicians who often deserve
more exposure but that has nothing to do with the quality of the music
being offered by HDTracks.
