yep. And one effect of server-side upsampling is a dramatic increase of
bandwidth requirements. Going from 44.1/16 to 192/24 means you increase
the bandwidth required by almost a factor of 7!
OK fair enough.
For uncompressed PCM:
16/44.1 = 1,411 Kbps
24/192 = 9,216 Kbps

Cool. Thanks for the info. Do those percentages include FLAC decoding,
or are you feeding
