If you mean over-compressed so the dynamic range is limited, I can
accept what you mean. Pop/rock often seems to have virtually the same
volume level for the "quiet" and "loud" bits regardless.

Thats a problem with modern music or recordings .

Processing or multiband compression is a necessary evil for a lot of
broadcast radio seeing the very few for most all of the working day will
be far from decent listening environments and thats the way that is..

However that notion has now filtered thru to record producers who think
the radio sound is how it ought be. I doubt that many of them would know
thats done with a specialised broadcast processor to make it sound the
way it is....
