Right, if people are bothered enough by all of this to sue, they should first sell off all the MoFi albums in their collection (likely for a profit). DSD or not, all of them. Since the issue is that they feel bamboozled they should completely disassociate with the brand. Next they should not purchase any of their future releases. It’s my guess that most are unwilling to take those steps but are more than happy to litigate.
Exactly what I told someone frothing at the mouth about this on another group.
We could be so lucky. Probably just send every aggrieved party 2 Mofi inner sleeves per record
I really like Qobuz and having a streaming setup. The biggest thing for me is that it’s stopped me from buying newer releases almost entirely on vinyl. I still buy older releases and some reissues but new releases don’t grab me as much since streaming sounds so good on a decent DAC
Exactly the same for me. I'm really enjoying Tidal (we don't have Qobuz in Canada) and I love that I can download albums and play them offline when I'm on the subway where there isn't any wifi service. Because our public transit system is antiquated GARBAGE.
I'm seeing this manifest itself with me as well, but not so much streaming, but going the CD route on new releases and then ripping them to my Plex server................a slave to physical media, lol
I got a 5xSACD changer but honestly, I've used it twice so far. Can't get behind CDs yet when streaming has been so much easier with Roon.
No cd player, but still buy cds when they are deluxe editions with detailed booklet.
Smart move.
I do have a CD ripper, so sometimes will buy some for $1 and rip em to add to Roon.
The big thing for me with Roon is the ability to incorporate Qobuz and all my downloaded and ripped files. I have a ton of FLAC files over the years and it makes it all seamless. I also really like their algorithm to recommend music based on what i’m playing.
Got that covered
I'm surprised I haven't gotten one of these yet. Is it lame sure but it is one of the only ways consumers can hold a big business accountable. So I'm mostly for it in a "you need to be penalized for lying" kind of way not a "I'm so angry" way
What's the cost/space needed for this. Sounds interesting
Like anything, it depends on how far down the rabbit hole you want to go. But generally, not a lot of space is needed, just for reference, here's the Schitt stack (DAC - Modi $129 / Headphone Amp - Magni $99), the lighter is there for perspective.
Except that the vinyl is a different master and has much less compression.
Nice! I ordered that Red Garland - All Mornin' Long in September 2020! Glad to see it's coming for $35!
It’s still a different mastering though. CD/digital mastering will always be different to the vinyl.
