I think what perhaps critics don’t appreciate is that there is a lot of luck in getting a good sound. It’s not all about the equipment, spectral response and compressing. It’s all about the quality of the musicianship, the songwriting and the sound reaching the microphone … that’s crucial. It’s often been said, “garbage in means garbage out,” so if that’s the case you won’t get a good sound.

I would bet that most good RE's would agree with that.

This has been discussed ad nauseum on every board and FB

Basically, the title was written by the editor (and this was admitted by the author on FB) to stir up trouble and was never seen by the author. And the title has nothing to do really with the content.

Smilar to Ian Shepherd's Mastered for iTunes Sounds 'Closer to the CD' -- I'm Calling BS rant. As you mine down into the discussion on the post, he more or less recants most of his positions and admits to being a pedantic boor on the topic. But he never changed the headline, and that's what was re-blogged and re-tweeted a couple thousand times without comment.
