Hey, when my cat runs out of the room when playing some of that crap, it tells me it's not going to be enjoyable.
Maybe you ought to ask those former customers that helped the music sales drop 1/2 in the last 10 years. Ask them how much they like the "new sounds".
No one said but you that all this new stuff is crap. A lot is, but not all. Even a broken clock is right twice a day.
I just don't see you or anyone else doing much of anything to improve that in the mastering domain.
Mostly, it's all compressed beyond what the format needs as a production decision. That is a decision that could be re-thought. However, it's not done for technical reasons, it's audio fashion. It's in style to compress the snot out of every CD you can. Then add a few digital overs, then adding some tape hiss on top. Many don't, but too many do.
Doesn't mean we have to like it. Many have voted with their feet. And their pocketbook. Take your arguements to them.
