hogwash!

Not just Rush but all bands would greatly enhance our musical pleasure if they meticulously mastered their pressings.

As for Mr. Joe Murphy Jr's generalized statement that 'further compressing the cd medium is a bad thing" is not just a personal statement but one bereft of any conclusive information and that taking his advice is fraught with disclaiming many good sounding cds. Try this Joe, play the mofi gold version of Moving Pictures. Do the same with a later remaster and do the same with the current 30th anniversary double disc's cd version. Which one sounds better to YOUR ears? Your answer will say a lot about your judgement, which at the moment is premature.
And you are wasting your time with the 'boy band' lecture. Sounds like you are more full of yourself than sure of yourself. I await your listening results with open arms.

Like I earlier mentioned compared to many other band's discs this new one from Rush is not all that compressed. What compression is there greatly enhances information available on the disc and not at the cost of piercing sound.

Until you try that little experiment above keep your generalizations to yourself.
