Very simple: hardware, the more money spent, the better the sound. Software: heuh, geez, I just spent all my money on the hardware, euh, darn, I guess I'll take out my old vinyl...
A Little Hypocrisy?
How would you respond to the record company exec who say -
"I look on the Audiogon web site and I see people buying and selling $5,000 cd players, $10,000 speakers, even cables and wires for several hundred dollars per linear foot. Nobody complains about those kind of prices. Yet you complain about cd's costing fifteen to twenty bucks. What gives?"
I include myself in for this criticism, but I'd be fascinated to hear how anyone else would respond to this.
