Totally Ridiculous....Auditions on YouTube!

Agree completely.

I would say (and do believe) that DIFFERENCES can be heard, but to ascribe a value to those said differences is sheer folly.

Happy New Year to whole the damn gang!

Its not about bit rate… its about the recording microphone being used and the playback equipment on the other end. No way on Gods green earth can anyone accertain anything from these videos.

It seems you are moving the goal post. You started with complaining about Youtube but now you claim it is the bad recordings. That can happen with loss less formats too. And some Youtube videos have excellent recordings.

And these YouTube reviews are not "recorded"....When the reviewer is playing a Beatles cut, I doubt it is live!......:-)

This is one of the best sounding YT videos I've found so far. Try it on you big rigs or with good headphones.
