I hope the humorous title won't take away from the gravity of the issue.
After reading up on how music is produced and the crisis that is the loudness war I was discussing with a friend the best way to obtain the 'truest' recording of the music. I listen to alot of Beck and after hearing him speak about now they would spend a whole day perfecting a single aspect of a song I'm appalled thinking what the producers might have done. So long story short what is the best way to get the unpreverted, truest, and most honest recording?
I can only see three options and I'm not sure if there's more...
1. Standard download.(usually mp3) highly doubtful.
2. Buying CDs and ripping with EAC or something.
3. Vinyl and ripping.
I'm just hoping there's a silver lining somewhere here like the guitar hero story with Metallica. Or are we all screwed and just write angry letters?
