Not to go down a rabbit hole....but I have to wonder about all the 24/96 downloads. Are we for sure getting the best possible version of any particular release? I didn't think so....I've downloaded many and found most to sound pretty good, yet others to sound very thin and the DR is crap. So, how do I know that if I went out and purchased an LP version of that same title......that it wouldn't sound better?
Unfortunately downloads are a "crap shoot"...but in fairness...so are all the other forms of music...you have to use the same methods to "suss out"(I must copy Adams' use of this expression...I love it)the good from the bad...by asking on these forums and getting recommendations...just like you would for surround titles...but in this case there are fewer opinions to gather on downloads....especially with rock titles...and then there is the multichannel search for download opinions...good luck with that search...
