Lou Reed delivered his keynote address at this year's South-By-Southwest festival last night. During the speech, he expressed his concerns about new audio technology. "People have got to demand a higher standard" he said when discussing the quality of MP3s. "It's like the technology is taking us backwards. It's making it easier to make things worse."

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.
