They are learning. Sony hung on for a long time thinking sound quality
was important. But the continual success of the lower sound quality/more
songs stored model has been a lesson for them. I do not expect sound
quality to be improved by the directions things are going. Soon the CD
producers will realize they only have to make the music sound quality
good enough for mp3...
Actually, that's already happening.

No amount of software hacking will improve the preamp. That's always
been the limiting factor for sound quality in walkman MD.
