Fairly lackluster article.
Not all .mp3's are created equally and can vary in how lossy they are based on the bitrate.
If you care enough to want to hear exactly what the artist wants you to hear, you just listen to the lossless version.
- flanked-evergl 2y agoThe "lossless" version is in fact not entirely lossless. There is much that gets lost in the process of digitization, and even if there is no digitization happening the analogue equipment has some frequency response range.
- vinhcognito 2y agoMaybe theoretically but for our purposes doesn't the Nyquist–Shannon sampling theorem mean it's essentially lossless to our ears?
- sumtechguy 2y ago> Not all .mp3's are created equally No kidding. There are a decent number of options to pick for quality of mp3. VBR/CBR, bitrate, joint/stereo/mono, and so on. I personally just pick something that sounds fairly close to the original. But that only really matters for me when it is side by side. Give me a few days between picking and I can not really tell anymore.
