Comment on High Fidelity – 2011 – The Digital Rebellion by Jon Payne

Very true mister epistaxsis, but I do not retract my statement. I will however qualify it by adding that it was a comment intended to be applied within the scope of the post; Specifically – the majority of music listeners. There are a handful of the hardcore who still enjoy vinyl, but going forward – most people are CD people, and have been for a long time. Even my dad has an itunes library and an ipod, and his record collection hasn't been out of its sleeve for some time.

Maybe one day we'll set up to flac them to 24bit / 96Khz for posterity – many people are doing that these days – lots of original pressings played out through some quality gear are being FLACed so you can enjoy near-as-dammit vinyl experience through your mobile device.

I won't disagree that 100% analogue production and reproduction still has its benefits; Colour, warmth etc. But eventually…..science will understand these nuances and subsequently emulation will fully catch up, and we'll be able to make 384Khz 32Bit digital music playback with warmth….I am sure of this.

You are _really_ testing my memory – but open the boot, look to the left side of the boot, you’ll need to pull the carpet off carefully, and you should find the changer connector down in the recess above the back wheel.

I was most upset with their standpoint – they took no responsibility whatsoever for their site security being breached and the false security that offered. It was the bait on the hook, and without it I would not have been caught.

It sounds like they rely on an inability to contact them to save them money……..whether you are buying or selling
