I'll have to find a way to word things more carefully. MD is only okay for something recorded at the show like sbd, mics or whatever. And no loopholes recording the radio simulcast from the audience or something silly like that!
truth is, when we started this site there was quite a discussion on the topic of allowing mp2/webcasts when they are unique sources. My interpretation of our final decision is that it will help surface the non-lossy sources faster. Since sometimes lossless sources never surface it is often worth it to share mp2/webcasts, just not on this site. We ended up keeping the MD exception so in the end our stance on lossy sources is pretty much the same as it was at STG (altho many other things are different).
