I have no problem with lossy compression. I use it all the time.
(DV uses 5:1 lossy spatial compression, for example.)
My objection is the massively lossy compression used by the
low-end crowd. If they can live with it, good for them. It drives
the rest of us batty. Even the mild 5:1 spatial compression of
DV fails on some program material. But overall, it is worth the
cost/benefit tradeoff.
Mine is a purely technical issue. You can take your psychological
and philosophical babble over to some metaphysical newsgroup.
