Sigh.  Yet more interesting classical performances, captured in low-
res mode.  Wasn't a Disklavier "Pro" available?  Couldn't the 
recordings have been made in high-res (XP Mode)?

High-res recordings from Pros can obviously be played just fine on 
regular Disklaviers.  But, if the extra high-res data is never 
captured, it's lost forever to the world.

This makes me sad.

Basic digital: If you record in low-res, you can't make it high-res 
again.  But, if you record in high-res, you can always "down-convert" 
it to low-res.

How can I encourage the usage of Yamaha's best technology for such 
recordings in the future?
