I don't hear any actual differences, but if you're going to record something these days and aren't limited by CD restrictions, it seems fine to record at a higher sample rate just to do it - maybe some audiofiles will appreciate it. But I don't believe it's the cure for bad recording, or adds air, or anything.

Actually one reason you might consider recording at a higher sample rate is so you can have your tracks up on hdtracks.com and/or Neil Young's Pono store (if it ever opens?). Not sure if that means a lot more money, but it's a thought...
