    Actually, “of the modern day” there’s way more people who listen to crap quality music than there is of people who actually admire music enough to purchase high quality equipment to improve their music experience. Think of the loudness wars.

      This was very well put. When most of us were kids, the music was kind of raw. Now, the music kids and millennials are listening to even worse - it makes those older recordings sound pretty decent by comparison.

      Just look at Skrillex and that dubstep craze, circa 2012. Music quality took a huge hit in the race for who would have the loudest, most ear-shredding tracks. It sounds like trash no matter what it’s played on, so shy would people care about SQ beyond what they get from a Beats Pill?

        “Music quality took a huge hit in the race for who would have the loudest, most ear-shredding tracks. It sounds like trash no matter what it’s played on, so shy would people care about SQ”

        Heavy metal from 80s-on has entered the chat. So much distortion that you couldn’t tell if it was the music or the sound system. Non-SQ music is nothing new.
