Interesting article. Though of course I've often wondered whether or not other people's sensory experiences are the same or completely different from my own, I never realized what a huge philosophical subject this question of qualia really was.I would be an ass to try to say anything intelligent about Dennett's analysis. But I can say confidently that the paper shows just how superficial the Audiophile Debate really is -- and affirms for me how ridiculous people are who claim to actually know what they are hearing.

I like Dennett's approach and his fundamental groundedness. His book "Consciousness Explained" is not the latest thing in the field but it's still a worthwhile read.
The philosophy of consciousness was going to be my field until I worked out that the only available jobs were teaching Philosophy 101 to bunches of snotty undergrads.
