OMG! Here we go again! Dangit Bill, haven't you been paying attention?
And here's another....
I bet the same applies to the coloring agents used in poster putty. So please Bill, spare us. This IS an audiophile forum!

Good point. And I hear that the new Blu-Tac Mk. II Kleer will be killer, it's demagnetized...
Have a pop, blow your nose with a tissue and get your head out of the fridge.
I’m sure that no one will read this from a long-dead thread but I thought those two quotes were priceless. Personally, I believe that the cable controversy can’t begin to compare to the lengths people will go to in order to justify demagnetizing CDs. Yes, this is an audio forum and it’s the only tiny, tiny corner of the world where these people can exist. But I must disagree with your ultimate defense of their behavior and your plea to essentially “let them be.” These are not just meek innocents who just want to say a few words about the metallic content of cobalt ink and then retreat into their treehouse like Keebler elves. Can you imagine what these people must be like? They can’t be dumb, not if they know such arcana and are able to preform that level of sophistry. And there’s no way that they contain these traits to Stereophile. No, they spread their evil thinking at cocktail parties across this great nation and pass it on to their unsuspecting children. Can’t you see them, reading “Goodnight Moon” to some defenseless infant and explaining why the lag relativity imposes on the moon would make the story a violation of physics? No, we must take up torches like the townspeople in Frankenstein and hunt these people down wherever we can find them. As we beat them, shouting, “Cobalt ink needs demagnetizing, eh?” we will be striking blows for all good, decent Americans who wish to live their lives free from pedants and know-it-alls everywhere!
Spoken like a true English major. Thanks for the laughs!
