I'd use the CD player even more if the car wasn't so damn noisy inside. You ipod generation youngsters don't even know or care that the music is compressed and seriously compromised in order to store it in that fashion.
But then again if your are listening to Chris Brown and other currently popular artists it doesn't matter. |

I'm sorry but this is a crock. My dad has said the exact same thing and I know for a fact he has never actually A/B'd a recording on a CD and an MP3. He is simply parroting back something someone told him or he heard somewhere. Even if he is partially right, it has nothing to do with the compression of the storage format, it has to do with the compression done in the production of the music. Seriously, look up "Loudness War" on Wikipedia. It's really nerdy but it explains what you're hearing. The main reason this is a crock is that the sound fidelity on a car stereo, especially when road/wind/engine noise is factored in (not to mention that you're sitting inside a metal can), is not close to high enough to discern the difference between a CD and a properly done MP3 recording. You would need a proper, quiet room and audiophile components to do this. The other thing is that people made this EXACT SAME argument when CD's came out in the 80's. All the purists claimed that you could hear the difference between a sampled, discreet recording and a continuous sound wave generated on a vinyl LP. |
