It just seems that you're convinced that there's no
improvement possible in the digital domain and CDs, at
least in terms of the format itself.

Apart from mixing all fruit (digital domain) and pears
(CDs), your statement has some merit. Digital domains may
always be improved using higher sampling rates, for
instance.

At some point consideration has to be given to the performance of the entire
record/playback system as well as the performance limits that are imposed by
various steps along the way.

There is no way to regain lost bandwidth or lost dynamic range once it has
been lost.

It turns out that the CD format is one of the most perfect parts of the
whole process.

Consumers seem to be wonderously naive about the limits on performance that
are imposed closer the extreme ends of the entire record/playback system.

Hey, it helps sell "The new distribution format of the year" and "The new
remastering of the month".
