Which, in turn, destroys the music.

Trivium ftw

And yes ... you can still buy music hardcopied style ...
Even if you get lossless, pretty much all new music these days is amped up to hell. Even CDs. It's retarded.

With mainstream music perhaps ... there still are some bands out there that takes their own sound seriously ... like in the youtube clip you linked to you can check that by turning up the volume on your stereo ...
It's often out of their control.

The idea of any hi-fi system is to reproduce the source material as faithfully as possible, and to deliberately add distortion to everything you hear (due to amplifier deficiencies) because it sounds 'nice' is simply not high fidelity. If that is what you want to hear then there is no problem with that, but by adding so much additional material (by way of harmonics and intermodulation) you have a tailored sound system, not a hi-fi. - Rod Elliot, ESP

lol must have been a contract with some earbud company or something. Sounds ridiculous.
Bono said it in an interview with the band that I saw.

He said they're doing it because that's how most people listen to music now-a-days, so they want it to sound good the way it will be heard.

I.e ramp up the bass and treble to hell.

I hate people.

Thats really lame, no way in hell most people listen to music with earbuds. Since when is audio quality measured with earbuds. Obviously he wants more younger people to listen to his music as they are the majority of earbud owners coupled with their mp3 players.

Why Ipod? I had a Creative Zen and after a month it broke while it was on my table. I put the headphones on and suddenly the audiojack was broken. Sony walkman the new one, same thing. My friends Zune: every single bass destroys the song.
my ipod and iphone; no fucking problem and great audio quality
I have a Creative Zen. Got it for christmas. I've dropped it, laid on top of it, etc. It works perfectly fine. I mean I had an ipod before and I liked it but I haven't seen much difference in the 2. The audio is great.

What? The music industry dying means that good music dies?

The fuck are you talking about? Some of the best 'scenes' of music have developed firmly in the underground with little or no corporate backing or industry-led initiatives. The practice of the 'music industry' is to seize upon artistic developments and creativity in genuine music circles and then package it and mass-produce it for everyone else to buy into as the 'cool thing'. If the music industry dies or suffers, the only thing that really dies with it are the masses of clueless fucktards that swallow whatever mass-marketed hype is being spoonfed to them that particular month.

To break out of this flac cycle, when i a)get my sub over here, and b)get some new HD's, i'm going to get as much of my music in flac as possible.

ps 99% of the music i have, i bought- i don't have any problems redownloading something i actually paid for.
