RE: Benchmark weighs in on MQA

Fitz & Duke,

I have a hunch that if MQA is adopted at all it will be because the owners of the music want the Digital Rights Management if provides. I bet it galls the heads of the record companies no end to think that someone somewhere is ripping 16/44 streams onto a hard drive. It's probably giving them ulcers. How MQA sounds will probably have nothing to do whether it is adopted. Oh they may use that to sell it to you, and get you pumped up about it, but that won't be the real reason.

As long as MQA limited to streaming I don't care, but if it is used in hi-res file purchases I won't buy them.

The thing that got me about that article was a dac designer who intimates he can't hear the difference between 24/96 and 24/192. Why the hell would I buy a dac from him?
