Well, and absolute masterpiece of a post.
The only thing I can possibly add, is what I have repeated
many times before, but you can't get enough of a good thing.
Marketing Lies:
-"Master Quality Authenticated"-
There is absolutely NOTHING authenticated, not by the artist,
the producer, or the mastering engineer. Marketing LIE.
-"Must be applied at Mastering". NOTHING is being mastered with MQA. It is post processing. Marketing LIE.
-Lossless. We know the "curtains have been pulled back", now don't we. Marketing LIE.
Then we can go into the "bandwidth" issue,
I have spoken to numerous manufacturers and they all have theories why the press has been shoveling this shit. A few have easy to guess theories, and 3 or 4 have some specific, harder to guess ones.
It is beyond shameless.
I would love for John Atkinson to post samples of his master files pre and post MQA for all of us to hear. But that won't happen will it.
