RE: HDtracks 24/96 download vs same ripped from remastered CD....

I've compared the new 24/96 Zep I files to a mid-2000's CD rip (which had the left/right channels reversed, so I switched them) and a mid-1970's LP in very good condition (I'm the original owner).

I think the new 24/96 files sound a little better than the LP and the LP sounds a little better than the CD rip.

I will not be buying any other Zep files (except maybe Zep IV because my LP is trashed from playing Stairway to Heaven backwards, or too many times) because there was not a big enough improvement to justify the cost. Besides, I'm mostly into jazz now and rarely get into a Zep mode.
