There is an interesting thing here of course, that as people get more
adept at removing bits of information and yet making it sound better,
could we be seeing the digital equivelent of why some say vinyl is better.
What I mean is, if you can identify the distortion or missing info in
vinyl that makes it sound better than what is perfect, then this could be
added to an mp3 to make it sound more like vinyl!

Its all very subjective, after all. Some people claim they like the ound
of Real Audio streams, but then maybe they are just deaf!

It's similar to people who think DABradio sounds better because it is
"digital". They
don't know why but think they are expected to say it is better.
I would love to see vinyl recorded with low bitrates and
compression/limiting.
Why not record a MP3 track straight to vinyl and listen to the difference.
DABradio is equivalent to a good quality MW mono signal with restricted
audio
frequencies.
