I think it all depends on the music. I have a ton of music ripped from
streams at 56k that doesn't sound grating to me, but when I listen to
playlists with an odd song ripped from YouTube I can definitely hear a
difference.
I have one album that I ripped from CD that was missing a track, and
downloaded a replacement off of YT, and it stands out like a sore
thumb when listening to it.
... Do they dream?
