In the case of Pono, they might not even know what it is or what it means when people say so called "HD audio," but rock stars might be telling them it "sounds like vinyl" or the funniest thing ever when Neil Young tells people with a straight face "it sounds like you are no longer listening underwater."

You are playing to to the hipsters and the people in the audiophile community who think very expensive power cables make an audible difference.

But people DO pay for things like this, so maybe musicians should profit from it too by releasing "HD" audio files.
