RE: Video: The Distortion of Sound...

"It may not be recorded at 16/44, but it must be reduced to 16/44, with steep filter, when cutting a CD.

But that filtering is done digitally, which allows you to implement it in ways that you can't do with analog."

That's not the point... The point is mastering to a CD requires steep filtering (to prevent components > 22 kHz from reflecting into the audible band), where mastering for vinyl LP does not require bandwidth limiting filters at all. (Although vinyl does require RIAA equalization.)
