The problem is that 99% of digital audio available to buy is still compressed MP3, usually somewhere between 128 and 240 kilobits per second. When I can buy / download FLAC at 16/44.1 then I will stop buying CDs, but until then I will continue to buy CDs, rip them and then store them in a box in the loft.
There are a few classical labels that do FLAC downloads, and I know that a lot of pop and rock is available in the US in that format, but over here in the UK those sites block downloads to UK ip addresses so we have to make do with MP3 from Amazon. Ho hum. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ TheLastMan's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=16021 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=96407 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
