My experience as composer and CD editor/producer (all anecdotal of course) is
the opposite, at least from the classical perspective: people who listen to
and/or perform more live music (solos, chamber music, choirs, symphonies, etc.)
prefer their recordings to have higher fidelity.
I myself have experienced a related effect: the longer I go without hearing
live music, the less I appear to be bothered by the digital artifacts in modern
recordings.
Cheers,
Kieren.
