How Science Got Sound Wrong

Nope, an article by an actual scientist ... just not an actual scientist on the technology most applicable to the article.

How Science Got Sound Wrong

Let me guess.  People who know nothing about science trying to take over?

Kinda curious.... what exactly is the most applicable technology hear, errr, here ?

Keeping in mind technology in the simplest form can be defined as....

the application of scientific knowledge for practical purposes, especially in industry."advances in computer technology"

• machinery and equipment developed from the application of scientific knowledge.
• the branch of knowledge dealing with engineering or applied sciences.

Using resources to solve a problem (such as knowledge, skills, processes, techniques, tools and raw materials).

Timing resolution of digitized bandwidth limited signals.

So what exactly is the problem that this technology is being applied to?

You cannot say Neil Young doesn’t have a way with words.

“When you hear real music, you get lost in it, he added, “because it sounds like God. Spotify doesn’t sound like God. No one thinks that. It sounds like a rotating electric fan that someone bought at a hardware store.””

”Low-quality streaming is hurting our songs and our brains.”

“I’m only one person standing there going, ‘Hey, this is [expletive] up.”

“The compressed, hollow sound of free streaming music was a big step down from the CD. “Huge step down from vinyl,””
