My understanding is that the Touch doesn't have a native setup for
24/88 files, so it will have to resample the file in SBS/sox (or have
it done by SBS/sox on an external server) in order to play it. 

If I'm wrong about this, Phil or someone else chime in. If I'm right,
to make a true comparison, you'd have to stick to 16/44.1 or 24/96
files.
