"Did you think the same about HDCD encoded recordings?"
That it is artificial ambience? That it didn't catch on?
As far as I know it was a compression/expansion scheme controlled by diddling the LSB. Unfortunately I can't comment on it's effectiveness, because while I have a few encoded CD's, I've never heard them decoded. But they sound pretty good anyway...
In that same vein, patches for early CD's, I think it was a mistake to have the preemphasis optional. Probably not a big thing now but in the early days of iffy resolution and dither the highs would have been better able to compete with those of tape and records to go along with their better bass.
