Sure, the master material is going to be digital. Who would seriously record something any other way? And if they are going to press records that are supposed to generate 30% more volume, as claimed (using standard phono cartridges. no less), how is that going to work on sensitive preamps? It will surely overload a lot of them. Maybe they will just blame the original digital recording for all the distortion!
