A random rubber band probably has better performance

He put his blood, sweat and tears (ok and money) into this short album and is looking for feedback.

I tossed everything into the trash. Waste of space. But I was never the guy that had lots of VHS, DVDs, Bluerays either. I don't need to own anything, just using it is fine.

If I were a "believer" in snake oil, I'd tell you that they are all digital CANBUS cables. But then I'd have to accept the fact that digital cables either work or don't work. BUT you can buy audiophile ones. It's just so sad watching all these people get ripped off.
