wrong answer number 6.)What would you use to make good quality sound copies?
I don't copy--cuz my work is my own and I don't cap.
What should this student have said?
To make great copies of sound, digital technology is superior to analog because analog is sensitive to static interference. (like when we listened to the moon landing of 1969...it was hard to hear; their voices were choppy.)
