Yet another take on the loudness wars

I forgot about live performance. Can't get more high fidelity than
that. I bet many young people don't realize that recording can
actually approach it. Though they may not care all that much. As long
as they like the music, it wouldn't really matter. It's like there's a
restoration program in our brains to make up for what's lacking so we
can enjoy it.
Some of those who have been to concerts have still never heard live
performance. Putting a live signal through a compression masher is just as
easy as a recorded source. If all you hear is the PA system, you're no
better off.
