I'd think that good music is a least a little convergent on several
(somewhere under a quadrillion perhaps :)?, whereas there are so many
possible music pieces, most of which are bad, there would be many
types of bad music. And maybe the ideal degradation algorithm would
be the inverse of the enhancement but I doubt it: going uphill is
different from going downhill, same's integration is different from
differentiation. A randomizing algorithm would do fairly well
degrading, but the inverse wouldn't upgrading.

there do you think? (Is there is finite number of
