It's not only frequency response that gets killed with poor lossy
schemes it is the comb effect, distortion, stereo field and a
whole host of other problems that these schemes cause.
In addition the style of music aggravates some schemes more than
others which is why little junior listening to some trance music
thinks his 128kbps mp3 sounds great but his mother listening to
a live recording of the Count Basie Big Band thinks 320kbps is 
barely enough.
