HDCD - worth mentioning?
Although the liner notes don't say it, the disk is recognized as HDCD by software Windows Media Player 10 and other HDCD-capable players. That kind of mastering is supposed to improve dynamic range of CD audio, but how can we make sure if that was intended or accidental? BenAkenobi 11:33, 8 January 2010 (PST)
