"The content needs to be recorded in hi rez or made from analog masters in hi Rez to be worth it."
Uh, yes, those are the only two possibilities..not sure I understand your point
I don't purchase recording engineering. I purchase music.
I want the whole Simon & Garfunkel catalog in the best possible digital quality? I go to Pono and buy the 24/192 remasters. I want the best possible digital Bruce Springsteen titles? I go to HDTracks and buy the 24/96 Bob Ludwig remasters. I want the best possible Yes discography in digital? I buy the Steven Wilson remixes and the 192 flat transfers of the original mixes.
This is how shopping for (hi rez) music works. I don't shop by resolution or recording credits. It starts with the titles.
Follow Ups:
I won't repurchase without a significant SQ upgrade.
Of course..same applies to an SACD or CD remaster..no sideways moves for me...
..luckily there are good sources of information on the quality of hi rez remasters. The Steve Hoffman Forum has over over 2000 pages on HDTracks, Pono, Qobuz etc reviews. You find posters you trust and follow their opinions.
I was able to make very good purchasing decisions on the new Deep Purple 24/96 releases, and recent Miles Davis 24/192 remasters.
