"Reproducing music is artificial.
But not necessarily deliberately altered"Not deliberately, inherently. An image from a camera is not the real thing either, no matter how good the camera or the photographer.
"For someone who finds that a Lincoln MK VII "provides all the performance you can practically or legally use" such an opinion is not in the least bit surprising. :)"
My Mark VIII can accelerate to 60 mph in about 6 seconds, handles very well, and has a top speed of over 140 mph, an insane speed on any public road besides being illegal in the US to drive that fast. And unlike far more expensive sports cars which have marginally better performance of little practical use, it is very comfortable even on long trips, has all the amenities I want, and can actually be used to carry some fairly large and heavy objects...like AR9s.
"Interesting. So there is a commercially available SM Special box out there?"
Yes, if you know how to use Yamaha DSP-1. When I saw it, I recognized it instantly for what it was.
"How did that happen? Did he know where you live, break into your house, and conveniently locate and take microfilm of the original manuscripts with your algorithms?"
No, it was much easier for them than that. All they needed to do was get a copy of my patent. It's in the public domain. In fact they were probably among those I gave copies of it to at the 1983 AES convention in NYC so they didn't even have to pay the price of a postage stamp. The bad news was that two attorneys advised me what it would cost to sue and what my odds of winning in court would be. The good news is that few if any audiophiles ever took it seriously and really understood how to exploit its potential. So the amount of money to be made from it was modest.
