Others have mentioned the infuriating habit today of removing any
vestige of dynamic range from modern mastered CDs, then clipping the
result, all in an attempt to get maximum loudness. I previously posted
that the Daily Mail even, ran an article a week or two ago highlighting
this trend.

ahem There is an article related to this in the latest issue of 'Hi Fi

only manifestations of this problem...

Slainte,
