I'm wondering who here does and does not listen to MP3's.
Me personally, I can appreciate being able to fit a lot of music into one digital space. BUT, I just can't get over the loss of audio information by compressing the audio signal. Even if I use the highest quality ripping format, I occasionally get to certain part of songs that sound relatively horrible in comparison to the original, and I can't stand it. For me, one example is trying to rip the into to "One" by Creed--I can't get an MP3 recording of it to sound right, no matter what I do.
I guess I'll continue to keep my massive CD collection and play off the originals. Because of this, I've never gotten into MP3 swapping or anything.
Any other purists out there? Or am I just too picky?
