Is this MQA news a big deal?

I heard the MQA it’s really good, I preferred it over DSD. It’s the one that came close to vynil, in the system we were listening...

Not a big fan of MQA. I prefer DSD128 and 192/24PCM. MQA is a lossey 192/24. 5G and Wifi bandwidth is more than enough to stream DSD and 192/24PCM.

Curious, what DAC were you using?

Corporate greed is insatiable. Profit is the only driver of this product-as usual. The market for phony products (in this case ‘pretending’ to provide ultimate quality) is endless. No matter how sophisticated this is just another way of selling cheap copies of the original music. I don’t think the musicians and recording professional will bite. But the masses are all about cheap. Most female housekeepers and check out clerks are sporting GUCCI purses...   disposable when the next copy come out. Sadly I think much of the dreck played on commercial radio deserves no better. This product is a continuation of a pernicious race for cheap and disposable. Thank goodness for artists and craftsman  persuing ideals.
