I try for good sound- I have about 6 DACs and linear power supplies that I have played with for my SBs, and I have a solid system. Nonetheless I haven't encountered issues with iTunes ripping in the years since my SB1 first came along. That being said, since I starting anew, I will try to get it close to right! However, I will not obsess over an inaudible bit lost. I read somewhere that unlike previous SBs, that the Touch deals with both FLAC and Apple lossless natively, and that this is a change from previous SBs. Any truth to this?
