Is this question not analogous to the number of pixels in a digital
photograph? The more pixels, the higher resolution the picture (all

the rate of frames per second in a moving picture would be analogous
to sample rate. Is that a reasonable comparison?


Not really. It's a dangerous comparison to make. Digital images and
digital audio don't work in exactly the same way, and the analogy can
end up leading you astray, confusing more than helping.
