I've read most of this book, and I think he makes some pretty radical "assumptions" about things which are mostly irrelevant when dealing with music. He seems to try to lump everything in with scientific discoveries (boiling water to kill germs) or math functions (E=mc^2), and comparisons to hard goods which may have limited quantities. I'm going to read your writings and links on the subject so I can see what your thoughts are on it. -- --- My bands, CD projects, music, news, and pictures: http://www.lateralforce.com My blog, with commentary on a variety of things, including audio, mixing, equipment, etc, is at: http://audioandmore.wordpress.com Staat heißt das kälteste aller kalten Ungeheuer.
