Well I tend to listen to alot of rock and bass type of music that tends to play at about the 900 - 1200kbps range in flac format. So I am saving a good 3 - 4x as much space with 320 mpegs. -- i'm your bass creator ------------------------------------------------------------------------ i'm your bass creator's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=19334 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=51021 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
