Thank you. But even "going astray", while that does happen, is not the core of my argument.

Rather, I showed that a wide variety of sounds can be had off a single CD, depending on the player and/or on whether a numerically-exact CD-R copy had been made.

The authors' "bottleneck", lacking any descrip, fails to tell us where it stands, sonically, within the group.

Myself, while I find most Redbook CD reproduction to be edgy and awful, a hi-rez disc of any sort being preferable, I also allow that the Memory Player (Redbook only) produces an elegant, refined, entirely palatable and musical sound.

So: Where among those possibilities does the "bottleneck" stand?

It astonishes me -- or, not -- that the authors' "peers" who reviewed the paper overlooked that vital missing link, the sound of the "bottleneck" and how it would so decidedly affect the outcome. Without such an assessment the paper remains entirely useless.
