Re: High-end audio maker Linn declares death of the CD player

Why not "selection"? Or "piece"? Or "work"?
"Song" is the worst-possible choice. It's yet another minor corruption of
English.

Track is so bland and mechanical by comparison.
Perhaps Tepper would prefer movement, as he spends so much time on the
toilet having one.

Right - so that means there were absolutely Masses of desparate pleas

Just play the tape.
Leave me - or the consumer - to fiddle with the sound should he or I
wish to do so.
And if you can't play the tape, get thee to a nunnery!

You would say that, wouldn't you, specially as you seem too lazy, too
cheap, or perhaps just too stubborn to license one and find out for
yourself.
This blanket attack on the quality of mastertapes - together with the
concomitant elevation of the poor LP to the status of an "original
source" - is entirely self-serving.

Great. If you want a list of retro-romantic bilge by audience-whores
this is it.
(Exceptions: a few of the composers wrote a few promising works in
their youth before they "went pop", as Xenakis once put it. And
composers born early in the previous century like Holmboe can hardly
be expected to be "contemporary".)
