Post Subject: The “digital masters” of my ass!Posted by Romy the Cat on: 4/8/2008
I was waiting someone last night in “Borders” and whale I was waiting I glanced through the current “Absolute Sound Magazine”. There was there a very short article with Prof. Johnson telling about his “new” HRx format. I smell some dead fish in what Mr. Johnson was telling and there were some factual problems in his story. I generally feel that the fairy-tale about the “digital masters” that industry tells to us, the consumers, annoys me. Recently the hysteria about the “masters” made industry very much loose sense of any trustfulness and lucidness… I am not prosing that HRx will be bad, they might be fine - I just do not like they stress the “RR masters” story as any more or less understanding person listening the assurances of the “digital masters” has his BS-meter maxed out.
