No, the digitally optimized thing for loudspeakers and amps is just hype. I can see what you're saying about video gear and that has merit. It's a different set of rules.Something else I think is worth noting is that the granuality of film makes it very high resolution. For example, if I am going to render a computer generated image and take it to film, it has to have tens of thousands of lines of resolution before the pixel density is greater than the film grain density. Said another way, the film is much higher resolution than the digital image. So if you want the best quality, I think film is still the way to go.
