pish....your saying:

Some people are sensitive to certain frequencies and if they are removed they prefer the result.
And also the sound becomes less complex and therefore more pleasant to some people.

= hearing problems or lack of audio awareness.

If you know about sound, a lower bitrate conversion offers nothing over an original, sure some may prefer it, but they are prefering an inferior copy....which is just silly...

It's not silly it's a matter of taste.

Replying to your busyedit btw.

Pfffft, Thank goodness I totally ignored your first link

Damn, I knew the Skweekster had queered me pitch.

A matter of bad taste....or ignorance, that's no excuse...

[Mr JP Fugley]

Indeed, everyone thinks that taste which differs from theirs is bad taste.

That's kind of how it works.

Your argument is so pointless, you can always find someone with a differing opinion.....Lossless is better than lossy. Fact.

That's a value judgment and you have made yours. As it happens I agree (subject to having the correct kit) however other people prefer other things. As such for them the other thing is better.

preference is one thing. better quality is another............

e.g. I prefer watching portsmouth to arsenal, but arsenal play better football fact. I wouldn't deny it....it's obviousement

[Mr JP Fugley]

You are discussing the word "better" in objective terms. However listening to music is subjective.

It really just depends on which particular use of "better" one is using. I would argue that in listening to music the important thing is whether someone enjoys it or not. Making the subjective test the important one.

Now your making sense, I agree with that, I'm just quite technical with my music (I produce some stuff) so from my angle (subjective, yes) I could never produce a track in mp3, I'd be laughed out of town....you get me? At end-user level enjoyment is number one priority, but on production level sound quality is most important.
