I lived through it, too. That's meaningless. Living through it doesn't automatically make you an expert. I grew up on 8 tracks and LPs.

I didn't say I'm an expert. I said I remember the time well and the articles I read and the comments of the classical announcers and Charlie at Tower Records and everyone else. You can't hand wave that away by claiming to be an expert. If you have an article from a technical magazine from the time period claiming that CDs are inferior audio quality but people buy them because they're convenient, bring it on. You don't. That wasn't what happened.
