Yes, I have searched the forum.
Yes, maybe I am dumb. But it seems I cannot find the answer. Why do we need 24bit/48kHz/96kHz/192kHz if 16bit/44.1kHz is good enough? Are there any situations that 16bit/44.1kHz simply cannot satisfy? In other words, is there any real need for the higher bit depth and sampling rate? Thanks for answering.

ok, i'm a newb so don't give me some slack, but wouldn't that mean that CDs are the last audio format we'd need for the foreseeable future? I mean I know from previous posts that DVD Audio is useless, so anything better than CDs with only 2 channels is pretty useless.
