You completely missed the point, I hope you will be able to understand
the neon light example. You need to make real life tests and care about
the sensitivities. What happens if you listen 16 hours with just a few
short rests to an analog tape and what happens if you do this listening
to MP3?

BTW, what if you all claiming this ridicoulus thing about being able to
distinguish beetween 256-320kbps (mp3) or 500kbps (ogg) meet each other at next
LAU and have a public test? I would really enjoy this double blind test with no
"degenerated idiots" around. On Wed, 2014-10-01 at 09:14 -0400, Paul Davis

Spot on Ralf! You've said it way better than I ever could.
Once you've actually *heard* good sound, an MP3 coming from a computer
just doesn't cut it.

I am amazed at the number of people who cannot tell if mp3 has
ever been
in the mix. To me its obvious, when your ears get tired of it,
and want to
"change the station" in just a minute or so, its been an mp3
at some
point.
For crying out loud, stop this nonsense!
It is established without any shadow of a doubt that the overwhelming
majority of the population CANNOT tell the difference between a
reasonable bit-rate encoding in mp3 format and the original PCM data.
This isn't up for debate.
For crying out loud, stop this nonsense Paul!
Just because several people can't distinguish cheese made of raw milk
with cheese made from heated milk, doesn't mean that the tests are ok.
I'm unable to stand heated milk, I'm unable to stand cheese made from
heated mild and I'm unable to stand MP3. Yes, there are double-blind
tests that confirm that people guess the real taste of a strawberry is
the artificial taste and that the natural taste is artificial. IOW if
you make double-blind tests with degenerated idiots, the results will be
idiotic.
Please post links about MP3 double-blind test done with human beings who
still remember how a real strawberry or banana yogurt does taste, who
know how a real Camembert made from raw milk does taste.
What group of people was unable to distinguish between a good recording
and a MP3?
