I find things like this annoying and literally no one I know seems to notice them at all. I went to see across the spider verse in “IMAX” with some friends and could literally see the pixels of the projector. Great movie, but if I’m going to see a movie in IMAX I shouldn’t be having issues with the resolution.

The thing that sets me off is the sort of sparkly chime in the higher frequencies of badly compressed audio. It does something bad to my brain, literally gives me unpleasant shivers. No one else I’ve asked about it hears it or has any negative reaction from it. It’s like the worst possible ASMR response or something for me. It’s caused me to become a moderate audiophile, which is endlessly mocked by the internet at large. iTunes and Spotify are mostly okay, but once I discovered you can download FLAC on Bandcamp I’ve never gone back.
