This article about Lou Reed's complaints regarding MP3 sounds quality reminded me of one of the first posts I wrote for this site, about the whole issue of voice quality and sound quality.
This article about Lou Reed's complaints regarding MP3 sounds quality reminded me of one of the first posts I wrote for this site, about the whole issue of voice quality and sound quality.Since I posted that item, we've run a lot of posts from John Bartlett of NetForecast about QOS, and these have generally been among the best-read posts on No Jitter. So clearly a lot of you share old Lou's concern about sound quality. The question is whether Lou, and you and I, are all just dinosaurs.
Part of my not-so-hidden agenda here is to get you to dig back into our early days here on No Jitter; we did a very "soft" launch back in December, but when I went back to look for the "VOIP for Audiophiles" post, I really felt like we had some great stuff there. It was a dilemma; I wanted (needed) great stuff right off the bat, yet we knew we were going to ease into this thing to give us a chance to let the kinks (as opposed to the Kinks) get worked out. So if you've got a minute, check out our December 2007 posts.
Cuddly, work-safe Lou Reed:
The Kinks sing about Fred Knight:
