RIP MP3. I knew about Tom's Diner being used as a primary reference during the development of the mp3, but the embedded video of all the information that was lost in the encoding is new (and fascinating) to me:
Unless I'm missing something, this headline is misleading. All that happened is that the patents on the codec expired, so the mp3 format can no longer be licensed. I don't understand how this is supposed to be tantamount to "killing" the format.

This jumped out at me from the Rolling Stone TOTD oral history:

Brendan's just so great. When he remixed Ten, he didn't really mess with the levels. He just pulled back maybe a little on the effects and the reverb. The new mix is just a little bit crisper. In the last 25 years, the way we listen to music is so different. People have gotten used to a lot of clarity at the top end. I think he really brought a lot of that out.
"People have gotten used to..."
FUCK PEOPLE!!! I'm guessing BOB has convinced them of this theory.
