Comfort and accuracy are both nice to have, but comfort is the more important consideration here. The earcups on the stock M50 are too small, so they sit on my ear instead of around my ear, causing a lot of discomfort. My cans are the original curly corded ones from about 10 years ago. My...

Yeah. Like I said, I can't leave it on now that I know it's that bad. I mean, in mono you can really miss some stuff, too!

No need to double rip anyway. Transcoding for the win! 

Just wanted to give this example of audio perception:   I've been using the lower quality steaming option on the Grooveshark website. I did some analysis today with Wireshark and foobar2000. I've had it on for a while (capped internet, blech), and it turns out I've been listening to 64 Kbps...
