Today, most of the music fans listen to is streamed via online services and highly compressed. It's convenient, but, frustratingly, this comes at the cost of quality. Gone are the days when it was technologically necessary to compress music into the smallest possible file size, yet this remains the industry standard. Neil Young is challenging the assault on audio quality, and working to free music lovers from the flat and lifeless status quo. Neil's efforts to bring quality audio to his fans garnered media attention when his Kickstarter campaign for his Pono player, a revolutionary music player that would combine the highest quality possible with the portability, simplicity, and affordability modern listeners crave became the third-most successful Kickstarter campaign in the website's history. This audiobook is eye-opening for all fans of Neil Young and all fans of great music, as well as listeners interesting in going behind the scenes of product creation.
