Hello,
Hi Res is currently quite a bunch of worms. IMHO at least 95% of what is out there being called hi res is not. As the music can be no better than the quality it had the moment it was recorded. Taking a low res file and pushing it thru a hi res anything does not make the original recording any better at all.
HDTracks and a few others actually are trying to capture music at peak rates and quality. That and using the original master tapes (assuming they were decent quality to start with) and making better than average quality copies of them can yield better than average records.
But, beware, most or what is being passed as Hi Res just isn't. The salespeople's mouths are moving and they are looking for your wallet.
