RE: A good headphone sytem will "soundstage" surprisingly well...

"Why do you need more than two channels for binaural? Isn't that all you need?"

I meant a 4 channel distribution format where you could choose stereo or binaural. All the downloadable digital formats could support it with little effort.

"I give up. Why aren't they? Perhaps it's because these recording have a zillion tracks/edits. Do we really have the technology today to make these sound natural/good/better?"

If it were expected that modern recordings come in stereo and binaural, then it would happen soon enough. The editing software would be designed to edit them in parallel.

It isn't there because 99% of people had no idea it exists. If Steve Jobs cared about audio seriously, it would have happened because he would have ordered it into iTunes and iPod and sold it as a magic new mind blowing SteveSound.

All the recording companies could have sold updated SteveSound editions with a minor remastering.
