In Reply to: RE: " I own SO much hi rez music it will be a helluva long time before I listen to it all." posted by E-Stat on April 18, 2016 at 16:18:02
But here is the one little fun factoid you are missing...
"99.5%" of music consumers think that Rebook CD IS high resolution..and even many think AAC and Mp3 are "normal". You can thank that liar Steve Jobs.

Actually, as I averred earlier, I think most folks consider MP3 such. Because the music industry has delivered lossy music on a vast scale.
Remember this?

Yes and no. What he did get right was the concept of file based music that transcends having to spin one disk at a time. I'm an old boomer who still has two turntables and a vinyl library, but I get the whole music server concept.
The music industry has failed to adopt high resolution on a wide basis (> 0.5%) as they originally did with the CD thirty five years ago using limited computer storage technology. That is no longer a problem. If hi-rez were the norm, then the public would consume it.
"The music industry has failed to adopt high resolution on a wide basis (> 0.5%) as they originally did with the CD thirty five years ago using limited computer storage technology.

The media companies will NOT invest in infrastructure for mass high resolution distribution because there is no market for it. One comes before the other. They DID invest in high resolution video streaming because blu ray and HD TV created huge interest...hence the success of Netfilx and Amazon Prime etc.
You can without question easily tell the difference between 480 and 1080 on a $500 TV. NOT so with high rez audio. On ear buds or computer speakers, 10 out of 10 average listeners would not hear any difference on let's say the 24/192 Blue Note remasters vs the CD produced from those files.
Here is a tid bit for you..iTunes receives thousands of 24/96, 24/48, and 24/44.1 wav an aiff files from the record companies then they create their 256 AAC files from those. They have chose NOT to sell not only lossless high rez, but not even CD quality files.
There is no market.

Then you have a reading retention disability. I've already acknowledged that here .

It's already here, Sparky. I get 29 Mbps download capability on my phone (just AT&T LTE) and 53 Mbps on the computer.

Until they are exposed to that on a regular basis.
You still are responding to phantom posts. You have created your own reality.Bandwidth has NOTHING to do with high resolution distribution.
The labels have not invested in store fronts, or promotion. That is where the big dollars would have needed to go.
"Until they are exposed to that on a regular basis."
Nope.

Why don't we return to what you said in your last post?

The infrastructure is already there. You can rent Amazon data services to provide inexpensive web presence. Which would be a whole lot cheaper than the manufacturing, labor and supply chain intensive cost of producing, handling, shipping and writing off dead stock for physical media. That's the part Jobs got perfectly well.

Storefronts? Are you kidding me? Yeah, let's look at the phenomenal success of Tower Records, right? LOL!
Nope
If that's you view, then why not accept the reality of the merely token representation of high resolution recordings in the marketplace?
You continue to talk out of both sides of your mouth.
You can't have it both ways.
You claim my data is BS yet you want me to supply it. Nonsense.
With your fact-free posts, there is no way other than fiction.
You claim my data is BS yet you want me to supply it.
Data? What data? Perhaps I missed that. Please rectify my lack of awareness with the post(s) in which you have posted any data !
Here we have it. A record industry guy who ignores facts, and continues to cling with his imaginary perception of the world.
"digital" store fronts chucky. Not brik n mortar.
"digital" store fronts chucky.
Please lead me to the Universal Music download site where I can download anything from their catalog (in something other than lossy content).
