Joke

Hmmmmmm

It's pretty clear to me that there is something inherently wrong with naked short selling. I mean, it hardly fills you with confidence in the product when the salesperson of the aforementioned short trousers isn't even wearing them.

Apple is Fisher-Price of sound quality, says Neil Young

Miles Hipkin

made me think...

"hey now, what's that sound, everybody look what's goin down...."

I've never been impressed with the sound an iPod makes, or the lack of options to improve and modify the sound to suit your speaker options. My phone produces a better noise through it's speaker.

For a product you pay such a premium for you'd expect it to perform better, though I doubt that's what Neil is poking at. No matter what format you use the lowest common denominator is usually going to be the DAC you use for playback.

Oh yeah, and Nyquist was and is right.
