Lou Reed certainly knows his shit. It's about time everyone woke up and smelled the roses. MP3 audio quality is compressed to the hilt. The sound is inferior. YouTube, although cool, the picture quality is like a postage stamp. Everything is getting too instant. I'm not complaining about new technology. Embrace it. But don't abuse the music. Reed understands the bigger picture. He continues to be a genius.
