The ZIP files floating around from 2012 are often 128kbps or 160kbps MP3s. They sound "thin." You miss the vinyl crackle on "Sweet Life" and the sub-bass on "Lost." Channel ORANGE is a sonically dense album; listening to a degraded bootleg is like watching Blade Runner on a phone screen in direct sunlight. Channel ORANGE is owned by Def Jam Recordings
