Thought I'd try another post and pray it doesn't disappear.
Over the years, it seems that some Stereophile Magazine authors have lowered their written communications to more closely match the USA's voting public.
I regularly read: "value-for-the-money" What is value, if not for the money? Why the need to explain "for the money." What's a good value, otherwise?
"At this point in time" Either point or time should be eliminated. The same for: "In any way, shape or form." Cliche, trite, worn, and redundant.
I must be getting sensitive, like some posters I've complained about, but I look to the Stereophile for quality and good examples of written material. These sophomoric errors wouldn't have passed editorial proof-reading -- "Back when I was a boy." Well, at least I'm feeling better, now.
What are your opinions?
