The MoFi Mess and TAS rolling over for them


Totally disgusted with TAS opinions on the mofi mess. They're basically saying it was okay to dupe us.  Jonathan Valin actually says as long as it sounds good...

What a sell out to the audiophile community.  TAS is nothing but a glorified product catalogue for their advertisers.

@mahler123. I was being polite in not stating the obvious - that the motivation for pressing a digital file into a piece of plastic is profit. There's nothing inherently wrong with a profit motive but passing off a digital product as purely analogue is another thing altogether - literally and metaphorically.

Wow, in must be national "kick TAS in the nuts day."   I subscribe to both Stereophile and TAS, and prefer TAS.  Any publication that is selling advertising space to a company and reviewing their products, is not going to be capable of stating the unvarnished facts. As long as one understands that both of these mags will be very enjoyable.  If you can't deal with that, why waste your money on a subscription.

What I have found interesting about the MoFi issue is the level of indignation - and even outright anger - that it has prompted from some. And I have to wonder: Have any of them actually ever bought any MoFi LPs?

It will be interesting to see if the suit by Tuttle, Collman is granted Class Action status, and to what extent plaintiffs can show damage.

disgusting. well, runnin a con and pre-paying to validate, justify or cover it up. that advertising money, huh?

Complain, whine, bitch and moan.  Repeat.

How many threads on the same topic do we need?
