The last Rush CD was noted for this too, and even the CD layer of the new DSOTM SACD/CD hybrid has been "limited" more so than prior editions (in Stereophile this month).

The latest Red hot Chili Peppers is also "squashed" like this too.

IMO, who needs the crappy quality of MP-3, when you can just listen to a poorly mastered CD?
