I can't tell the difference on my Zune but I can in my car as crazy as that sounds. Not much road noise in my car. My collection is approaching 2TB of lossless. So a second lame -c0 collection does actually make the disc situation more complicated than it needs to be. My lossless collection grows by 10GB a week at least. -- Jeff Flowerday ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Jeff Flowerday's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=15883 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=44597 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
