7. Compressed music makes you tired. However clever the technology and the psychoacoustic algorithms applied, there are many issues with data compression of music, as discussed in this excellent article by Robert Harley back in 1991. My assertion that listening to highly compressed music makes people tired and irritable is based on personal and anecdotal experience - again it's one that I hope will be tested by researchers

Sounds pretty ridiculous, and his experience is anecdotal yet he speaks like an expert and writes books on sound. Noise can cause stress and stress kills for sure, but most of the rest he's babbling about sounds like bunk.
