Today's edition of Soundcheck on WNYC is titled "Recorded Music and its Discontents" and discusses how the process and technology of recording has altered music itself, based on the central theme of Evan Eisenberg's book The Recording Angel [Amazon] (duly wishlisted). This has been been a frequent topic on music blogs since pre-NYC trip--in fact one of the original articles was in-flight reading. Probably an Alex Ross piece from The New Yorker ...

Bingo. With a follow up piece. Very good articles. David Byrne wrote a piece about it, as did A.C. Douglas (if you think I'm a snob, you haven't seen anything until you've read his blog). I'm recording the WNYC show in case I miss it.
