Even for music, while someone might put up a point-to-point microwave link or similar that happens to have that level of fidelity, I don't think there's any commercial music broadcast system in the world that comes anywhere close to that sort of SNR -- assuming levels and mixing have been done properly, there's no human being on the planet who can discern the difference between 28-bit music and 24- or 20-bit... and darned few who could even tell the difference at 16 bits!
