AI-Written Stereophile Articles
I've read terrible English-language writing, spelling, grammar, syntax, etc all over the internet and all over society for decades now; AI was not required for it; if anything, it might be better than what I read from a lot of humans.

DCS Sending Legal Notice To Reviewer (Golden Sound) Over an Old Review of Their Bartok DAC
@laoman + 1 - I wrote to dCS, told them that I buy expensive gear (a lot of MSB stuff, for example), and told them what I think of companies that sue reviewers over reviews they don't like, especially when the company says he got facts wrong and n... 
If A.I. took the place of musicians, would you listen to it?
@baylinor - the referrals still seem to work, but the autofill doesn't and the text looks just like all the other text....   
@member referral not working anymore
I get the actual referrals, but when I type in a name using the '@' sign, it doesn't show as being different from any other text....

@jastralfu - you are right; getting paid as an artist is bad enough as it is, and you wouldn't want a Milli Vanilli situation where the artists do not perform on the record. But ultimately I do not see an artistic problem as long as the recording ...

@hilde45 - 'Sermons in church'? Don't get me started there. Not everybody here has a wife and kids.   And yes, that would go for painting, novels, and other arts. An AI-written novel would not stop humans from writing novels or other humans from...

I'd be perfectly fine with it if I liked it. I don't care much how the sausage is made if it tastes good to me. And AI is still programs created by humans.

New Steely Dan Aja
@jdjohn - I've seen a few YouTube videos that did that, along with some others. CISCO seems to be a very popular one, but I haven't seen a review yet that liked anything else better than the UHQR double-45...

I assume you mean the double-45rpm version from Acoustic Sounds? I think it's awesome sounding, and I've got an original 70's promo from the day it was released. That is brilliant sounding, but nothing like the double-45, to me....   
Concert halls from around the world. What have been your favorites.

Elvis Costello's favorite album of his own.
I am not a musician and could not care less about the 'pocket' of a song. I care about how I like the song and how it sounds. I really like the Attractions a lot. I don't like Clover or Huey Lewis. You do like them. People can have differing opin...

@bdp24 - Yes, you read well. Just like how I'd describe that music I greatly dislike on 'My Aim Is True'. Zzzzz....  We got REAL Elvis music, in my opinion, with the Attractions.
