Fascinating analysis on "time travel", Jim, and also the subsequent page
"320kbps - More is less". Just moving slightly OT from that page, I
recall having a blazing row online with the guy who was in charge of the
"DAB campaign" around 10 years ago. I couldn't understand anyone in
their right mind going for DAB (I still can't) with the crappy bit-rates
applicable to the music channels at the time - I'd have loved seeing a
"Less is more" analysis of those bit-rates, LOL.
