This tells me that one shouldn't bother to read AudioAsylum. Lossless means that the data is preserved. It is trivial to test that a lossless process is correct, compress and uncompress and then bit compare. Similarly, if you hear that Lossless WMA is different (more or less accurate ) from lossless AAC is different from MLP is different from flac, it is pure BS. The speeds, DRMs, platforms supported, etc. are different, but being lossless is like being pregant. You are or you are not. There are no degrees. -- Pat http://www.pfarrell.com/music/slimserver/slimsoftware.html _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
