I'm talking about what one would label as the pro world of recording of material for mass consumption.

Is there anything about a particular arena of recording - pop, classical, opera, TV news, film, etc. - whatever - that you find lacking compared to an earlier era despite all the technology? Or do you think audio recording is at its zenith now?


Recording technology is certainly at its zenith - one can achieve
whatever one wants, for better or for worse, and
recording/production/delivery is nearer to the actual acoustic (where
appropriate) that ever in the past.

Whether or not 'most' of the music is as creative or worthy of
admiration is up for debate ...
