The truth about why modern music is so awful.

Interesting that the New York Times had a piece this last Sunday (Feb 3) about the "loudness wars" utilizing digital compression to "destroy" music.  Been a long time since I saw anything about this in the mainstream press, much less a semi-technical article complete with lots of comparative dynamic range charts.

Sorry for the error, but the article is an Op Ed piece in yesterday's Feb 7 New York Times.  I can't provide a link because it is a "fee only" site.  But a library paper will do.
