If those *CDs* sound 'unlovely' then so will the MP3s etc one might
download?

As a matter of interest, being an LP lover, have you bought any modern pop
stuff on vinyl and does it suffer the same mastering nasties as pop CD?

I've just been comparing my original vinyl of Led Zeppelin IV with a
modern CD version, and amazingly enough, the new one actually has a
greater dynamic range than the original vinyl. That is refreshing in
these days of remastering for loudness.
