Talk:loudness war

RFV discussion
Rfv-sense: I have understood that "loudness war" refers to the competition between producers of music records in producing ever louder versions of music pieces. The current definition says: The public backlash against mastering albums to such an extent that it distorts their sound quality. Is the war producer-against-producer or producers-against-customers? The latter makes little sense. If a producer wants to sell something that the buyers don't want to buy, the result should not be a war, but a fading business. --Hekaheka 11:21, 5 January 2010 (UTC)
 * I wrote that definition. The reason I worded it thus was because a) I didn't want to quote directly from Wikipedia's definition and b) I don't think the "wars" are necessarily "wars" in the traditional sense of the word. Rather, what is significant is what the process involves and that the backlash is publicised. Tooironic 19:44, 5 January 2010 (UTC)

Striking. has rewritten the definition in a way that takes into account 's comment, and has removed the tag. —Ruakh TALK 14:24, 30 July 2010 (UTC)
