I bought a copy of what must be the first issue of Digital Audio at the
local Seven-eleven last week. I think I've already thrown it away. Yes it does
contain a list of all of the CD's ever recorded. It also contains a bunch of
horribly saccharin prose about digital audio. It reviews a bunch of machines,
all favorably. It has articles about analog vs. digital (yawn). It also has
a bunch of record reviews in the back; they seem to be reasonable (i.e. the
taste of the reviewer is similar to mine in many cases). The record reviews
comment on sound quality and give information about how each record was
mastered. I guess that information is valuable, but it is certainly not
worth, to me, the price of a subscription.
