My favorite is most people are listening to already lossy compressed music that gets decoded and then recompressed in another lossy manner… I miss my cable sometimes.

In the end, I found I don't really care that much, since lossy Bluetooth works well enough for earbuds on the go, and good old cables are still available for more serious listening.

Plus, the truth is that most people can't tell the difference between lossy and lossless without doing A/B testing, and some can't tell even with that
