| Nietzsche and Runaway Audio Consumption There's a theory that Prof. Moriarty wasn't real, but a product of Holmes' cocaine addled mind. A highly intelligent individual with an inquiring mind connected the dots of seemingly random events and concluded that it was all part of a masterful... | |

| Why recordings made before 1965 sound better. I never understood why multi generation mix downs were accepted as means to an end without any consideration of downgrading quality. Consideration was given to generational loss, but it was balanced against the extra freedom allowed to the arti... | |
