You were just talking about the subtle extra sounds on the Jeff Buckley record that wasn't heard on one version versus another...
This is something I was thinking about when listening to my downloaded mp3 version of In Rainbows. Because of the care and amount of work they put into the layers of sound, I wondered if I was missing anything with the mp3 version...
I haven't listened to the CD version yet but, as I usually buy CDs before mp3s, and was thinking of buying the CD because there may be more levels of sound. Is there any considerable amount of difference..?
