Like most things Lou Reed opens his mouth about, he starts off in the right direction initially but ultimately proves once again that he's stupid ignorant fuck.

Yes, mp3 is a shitty technology that compresses music all the natural dynamics out of music. But when pressed for details, Lou comes up with this meaningless gem:

"Reed did express some hope that "you hear they've got a newer version (of MP3) that sounds better, and you suddenly hear the other instruments that are on the song."

Wha??

Cut the guy some slack. How much does your grandfather know about variable bit rates and compression? I find even 32o kbps MP3s utterly unlistenable, but what are you gonna do?

SXSW doesn't have my grandfather giving keynote addresses about technology.

Do what you probably do all the time. Jerk yourself off and call it a night.

Good Lord! SXSW makes everyone so angry!

it doesn't get much worse or obnoxious than busy p at le royale tonight. crap, proves to me that an extremely attractive crowd does not matter for sheit. not blaming busy p at all--he managed to spin the same set he's done the last few times he was here. blame me for making the mistake of trying an "event" in the west village guh
