    High quality sound - R4 today - You and Yours

    You and Yours today on R4 had a section on so-called high resolution music and downloads.

    Bonkers for me to listen, as we had the kitchen DAB on, though as it happens I did identify the high res version, which the participants failed to do. As pointed out though, this could have been because it was at a slightly higher volume level.

    Doing this clip on R4 at 128 kbps mpeg2 just doesn't make sense, and I'm not sure that doing it on FM would have been any better. Until R4 and other BBC channels are made available at higher quality levels, for example via the internet, then items like this broadcast over the air are nonsensical, though they do raise awareness.

    The programme is available with access to the music tests at http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b03wq2sr
