My experience in the audiophile world
I was a Red Book fan with a lot of ripped CDs and believed that 44.1 kHz is all we need because the distortion and other artifacts of the digital processes are above 20 kHz when the adult human hearing limit is even less than 18 kHz. After deep diving into MQA and listening tests, I've become a fan of this codec... If I could explain briefly, that lossless that we were listening to, is not truly lossless because there are many circumstances and people between you and the file that make it hard for the file to remain lossless after all of those processes. MQA takes control over this process and delivers true lossless to your ears. Many audiophiles are retrogrades who are stuck in the 70's-80's and don't want to accept the new information. For example, even Amir from ASR by comparing MQA vs CD vs Hi-Res does his review with an undecoded MQA file and finds out a noise added to the audible range (that is not audible, but anyway). He knows, I'm sure, that MQA never come...
