Khoi Vinh on the tradeoff between convenience and high-definition

“The essence of [the] argument is dead on: superior fidelity and resolution is terrific but overrated in comparison to convenience… Actually, it’s the content that really matters.” Hear, hear! Fidelity is great and all, but there comes to a point when I care less about the quality and more about the content. Actually, it’s more a spectrum of appreciation than any fixed point on a graph.
