SOP for many years. Using two sources is a newer trend (fad?).
Optimizing audio is optimizing audio. Bad CD master bad vinyl and vice versa.
You often speak with authority and are off base as far as the facts.
Well, using two sources as been the norm here for a long while. I speak for stuff I master myself and it's the way I was taught. Stuff supplied is another matter as you use what you're given. I have rejected stuff though and asked if a non limited version was available, we do have that course of action. As an engineer it's for me to advise my client accordingly.
