Yeah, that's a good point. Since no one transmits FLAC -except- over a TCP/IP network, the statement is nonsensical. It's like saying standard uncompressed files are superior to zipped files because zipped files have less redundancy, when the opposite is true - and the whole point! -- opaqueice ------------------------------------------------------------------------ opaqueice's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4234 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=44532 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
