Never mind - the CBS All Access stream looks like shit as well. Last night, b-ball on TNT looked great through Hulu including when they showed highlights from the game airing on CBS. I have no idea what’s going on but this sucks...
I noticed this during Chiefs games and the NCAA tournament has confirmed - CBS looks a lot worse than every other station through Hulu w/ Live TV. I wonder if CBS is intentionally degrading their stream to push people to All Access.
Maybe. I just did a google search for their most popular songs and nothing jumped out at me as something I've heard but their song titles seem pretty out there so who knows (perhaps Cat Food is one of many songs I love but can never remember the name of). About 15 years ago I really, really...

I'm always taken aback a little when I play Weezer's Rosanna on YouTube as it sounds fuller than I expect. The vocals are complete crap but the drums especially seem on point. I also don't notice any obvious compression artifacts (again, ignoring vocals) - it's not like listening to Sirius/XM...
If you can, play their cover of Rosanna on your main speakers and try to ignore the vocals; I'd be interested to hear your thoughts on the instrumentation, at least at the beginning of the song. Of course I can't fucking tell when I'm listening to a distorted DAC so it probably sounds like shit...

Unbreakable - Was on TV and there were ads for the upcoming sequel Glass
Bumblebee - Wife really wanted to see it, not too bad
Split - Had to do it after watching Unbreakable
Aquaman - I preferred Bumblebee
Blindspotting - Really good
The Nice Guys -...
A few years back some AVS Forum members from around these parts had themselves a little Blind Subwoofer Shootout featuring four sealed subwoofers, two ported, and 1 horn-loaded. More info in the first post here...
