"If a piece is recorded and mixed at 24/96 digital, wouldn't releasing it in that format avoid all problems introduced by converting among representations?"
One would think so, but then this place is an "asylum." :-)
There are people who believe two files that have identical file content (as evidenced by a MD5 file checksum, for example) can sound different, depending on their history of file creation. (Example: WAV file converted to FLAC, then converted back to WAV. When the two WAV files are played back they are said to sound different.)
