While the dishonesty of the company is a shame they laughed all the way to the bank taking advantage of these suckers. As being said the SHiTes are eating crow and it’s funny to watch them take it up the rear. When the music no longer matters and only for the “sounds” instead of enjoyment they deserve every thing they get.

I love that for all the crowing about the superiority of vinyl over digital we now know that all along they've being paying for the privilege of having the same thing on the fucking CD plus added rumble, surface noise, inner groove distortion, wow, flutter, cartridge alignment bullshit, etc... All the stuff that the CD format was invented to address.
I am fucking loving this meltdown.

How empty must one’s life be to spend hour after hour and day after day thinking about this and posting in that stupid thread? Stratdangler empty, that’s how empty.

Some of the offshoot threads will not last. Hence the “fill out your profile” bullshit. The level of enjoyment can only be based on what equipment you use and/or can afford.

They appear to be getting the lawyers involved now. Hell hath no fury like a SHiTE scorned.

dolstein: There are a lot of Shites in that MFSL thread who have clearly been shown how the sausage is made and are steadfast refusing to accept that MFSL, like every other independent reissue label, receives a link to a digital file. That's it. The idea that some "audiophile engineers" from a rinky-dink label are rocking up with their hEaViLy mOdIfIeD tape machine and just having at it with master tapes is absurd. It certainly wouldn't happen where I work. Nobody had even heard of this label when I mentioned the story.
The cherry on the cake is when the Shites name a bunch of other con artist audiophile labels that are still keeping the analogue flame alive with their AAA reissues from the master tapes. They aren't. Watch the lauded Analogue Productions promo video closely when they pull out their "master tapes". Master tape boxes don't normally look that uniform. Those are copies off of who knows what. It's all a scam.

My analogy for the MoFi situation is "You loved hot dogs before you found out they were made out of pig assholes, does that change the taste?"

I can't wait for them to sue Mofi and tarnish the name until they go out of business, and then cry and piss themselves when they stop getting reissues and remasters.

This whole vinyl sounds better thing I’ve never understood. Sometimes I hear differences and stuff but I never once give it a thought where the music came from, digital or tape. Maybe I just enjoy the music too much to care how it was recorded? Maybe it’s all bullshit? I’m currently listening to an album of music recorded on cellphones in the Sahel and transferred via WhatsApp to Bandcamp. I’m grateful to live in a time where I can hear such things. Who gives a fuck that it wasn’t recorded by Alan Lomax lugging 100 pounds of open reel gear through the Sahara desert? sahelsoundscompilations.bandcamp.com/album/music-from-saharan-whatsappThe music at that link is great to hear. I do understanding that a truly shitty mastering can make music relatively unlistenable, but that recording you posted is the much needed reminder that real music comes through even the crappiest of recording/mastering/listening scenarios.

I mean they're no Neumans but 'phone mics can be surprisingly good at basic frequency range pick up.

I have a bunch of albums that were my parents, as well as many from when I was growing up, that up until I brought them home were stored in a stacked pile on the floor of the attic for years. Yet they play better than many of the “new” albums I have do. So cleandan can take it lecture and shove it up where the sun doesn’t shine.
