The not so hidden secret is that way too many releases have been
identical in Red Book and "superior" formats.

A large part of the industry's push has clearly been their mistaken
belief that high res formats are copy-proof. Hence all
the restrictions about access to the digital data in
available players.

Compressing to death, deliberate overs, etc. are problems
across the board. I used to have hopes that
people would notice and complain. I don't hold that
anymore. I"m not sure anyone (at mass market quantities) listens
to music anymore.
