And the sad part is this is how most people listen to music.

On one hand yes, and it's even sadder that people don't just sit and listen to music - everything is louder, faster, brighter, and there's more of it at once.

On the other hand, aren't you able to tune out the shortcomings of a playback system and just enjoy music while you're driving?

Even sadder is that the beliefs expressed in this thread are now so
common amongst people who are well educated (by modern standards) in
music and sound production, that they don't realise they have lost touch
with the basics. Throughout the whole of their education and learning
processes, they have never been exposed to a good objective recording.

These kids today...
