Re: When hi-res audio stops making sense…
The likes of Tidal and Qobuz will probably be using the most recently remastered versions of albums at CD quality - and one has to wonder where any higher-than-CD-resolution streaming files are sourced. :think: Something I often wonder, when someone like the Zappa Trust release the whole catalogue ...

Re: Sci-Fidelity
Will be watching this over the weekend time permitting, but yes it's been a fun series thus far. At least it avoids the lets sort it all out in the last episode trap - I hope! Plus halfway through the last Picard for the 2nd time. Not sure what they can do with Discovery now, it's way too serious fo...

Re: Are CDs the future??!!
I still buy CD's but don't have a dedicated CD player. They all get ripped and stored. They get played through a variety of streamers/DAC's around the house. I do buy higher res stuff from Qobuz from time to time but it has to either be an album that I absolutely love, but don't already have a remas...

With the current crop of world politico's I'd favor the Italian practice of defenestration. Cures 99% of all known politico twats.

Re: Taking the piss out of politics
I 'love' that the tory press is whipping itself into a real froth over this, whilst far too many of our populace qualify for a food rather than a posh nobs bank.
Not entirely the most self aware people on the planet.

Re: Your last listen
Both The Skids & Big Country have decent box sets, The Skids later Burning Cities is definitely worth a go as well. No Thyself by Magazine is also rather good, though you may as well pick up Luxuria, Beast Box and Jerky Versions of the Dream along the way. Feel a bit of a fraud - currently playi...

Re: Your last listen
Killing Joke 'Brighter Than a Thousand Suns' (1986) Well, 'Brighter Than a Thousand Suns' doesn't sound much like 'Night Time', it is more subtle, restrained and layered, needs a different attitude that is more open and receptive.
