35.0. "Douglas Sax flame?" by TPLVAX::MILLER () Mon Sep 24 1984 20:17

I just read Note 8.0 (the anti-CD flame from Douglas Sax, President of
Sheffield Labs) with great amusement.  I guess his ideals of 'truth and
dedication to music' have gone by the wayside, because I notice that
Sheffield Labs is now selling CDs.  I own a few of them myself.

Welcome to the Machine, Mr. Sax.

P.S.  I haven't read many existing notes because NOTES is so slow on our
      system.

If you find NOTES being too slow, try NOTES-11.  It seems faster, even if
it isn't!

I've read some comments on this. Business is business. He can either make his
well engineered recordings available on CD as well as the direct-to-disk's, or
get run out of business. So whats wrong with letting all of the CD nuts
subsidize audiophile recordings, instead of the audiophiles subsidizing the
lo-fi market. I think it's a nice change. They are still some of the best
sounding and best engineered recordings available, regardless of the media
format.
