>CD distortion

There is no such thing as CD distortion. Does that make the whole opinion invalid?

Perhaps lack of distortion? I remember some DJ friends from back in the day saying that CDs sound more "sterile" than vinyl (this was late 90s/early 2000s).

Yeah maybe, but as a composer he should know better than that, no? Or does he rely on his engineers for that?

Perhaps they mean mp3 distortion? Many CDs were encoded as mp3?
