Three reasons that I can think of: 1) The record companies are afraid that making lossless files available will somehow increase piracy even though CDs can be easily ripped into lossless files and made available for illegal download through all the usual methods. 2) The great and all powerful iTunes store does not offer lossless downloads so why should a powerless record company take it upon themselves to offer lossless downloads and possibly anger the iTunes gods. 3) They are simply morons. If I had to vote I'd go with number 3 although number 2 is the more likely reason. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ralphpnj's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10827 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=95541 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
