Friendly reminder facts for @amvroofing and others
1. The native sample and bit rate of the mastering session is the best quality that any product could ever be
2. MQA is sonically distorted and lossy. Might be subjectively preferable distortion or might not, but it’s definitely distorted.
3. MQA is not master quality. (See 1.) MQA is not authenticated. It’s almost always bulk processed
