Great Read Jesse. It is sad to see the industry making recordings in overdrive just to compensate for the downloadable sect. Phooey I say!

high intrinsic loudness necessarily produces lowered microdynamics.
Well that line says it all.

Another good read on this subject would be the book written by Bob Katz, "Mastering Audio the art and science" by Focal press.
No further comment right now. This subject and the end result of some of today's music puts me in a bad mood. That said, I'm going to put in Donald Fagan's "Morph the Cat" and enjoy a properly recorded album. Phffffft.~ In search of accurate reproduction of music. Real sound is my reference and while perfection may not be attainable? If I chase it, I might just catch excellence. ~ -

Here is another list, some good stuff I'm sure you'll agree, look hereCarl -
