I'm with @LawrenceDavid here. A. Celebrating people losing their livelihoods is in extremely questionable taste. B. Your celebrating a corporate takeover that doesn't for one second even pretend to put us first. It's a money thing, not a vindication of your vitriol towards MQA. C. Regardless of whether you are pro or anti MQA (I'm undecided BTW) the merger of publishing and reduction of sources for independent views (whether you agree with them or not) is a loss to the community. @Brinkman Ship I've read a lot of your posts and you are clearly a knowledgeable and intelligent guy. But this debunk MQA at all costs lowers any authority you might want to establish. History will tell dude. No need to be so zealous.

ML treated people with disrespect, keep that in mind. Now I'm annoyed! I wasn't being elegant or politically correct. I was being polite. And not because I had to, but because its what I believe in. But if you want to take the gloves off then let's. I was trying not to be a dick. You could do with trying the same. ML may (or may not) have got it wrong re MQA. But regardless of that he has spent his career writing enthusiastically about our passion. I don't think for a second this was to chase the big money. I believe this was a vocation. But that's open to debate. MQA may or may not turn out to be a pile of crap. Regardless, its one fairly minor aspect of our hobby. Would you wish unemployment on anyone who argued USB was a fraud and AES was the ONLY way to go? Take a deep breath and a chill pill. You hate MQA. We get it. Arguing ML and the likes deserve to lose their jobs is not an appropriate response and is beneath you. I'll meet you for a fist fight if you still think I'm being politically correct Cheers, Alan look&listen, monteverdi and Bill Brown 2 1 Synergistic Research Powercell UEF SE > Sonore OpticalModule (LPS-1.2 & DXP-1A5DSC) > EtherRegen (SR4T & DXP-1A5DSC) > (Sablon 2020 LAN) Innuos PhoenixNet > Muon Streaming System > Grimm Audio MU1 server > (Sablon AES) Mola Mola Tambaqui DAC > PS Audio M1200 monoblocks > Salk Sound Supercharged Songtowers Link to comment

It's the toxic sentiment I object to. If we are to stop reading reviews for being overly enthusiastic then we're done I think.

I miss Audiostream.com already. I enjoyed it. spin33 1 Synergistic Research Powercell UEF SE > Sonore OpticalModule (LPS-1.2 & DXP-1A5DSC) > EtherRegen (SR4T & DXP-1A5DSC) > (Sablon 2020 LAN) Innuos PhoenixNet > Muon Streaming System > Grimm Audio MU1 server > (Sablon AES) Mola Mola Tambaqui DAC > PS Audio M1200 monoblocks > Salk Sound Supercharged Songtowers Link to comment

She will also continue to produce videos for us. John Atkinson ditor, Streophile Thanks John, That's welcome news. I thought I'd read that Audiostream was kaput with coverage of streamers & servers rolled up into Stereophile.
