Yeah and in all honesty the MP3 incoder of the LS-14 is pretty good. Like I said before I think I'm just jaded because of the PTR1 and 2 then the MileStone 311.

I've been doing my cd, vinyl and tape rips all at 320k-bit, and hear nothing wrong. Quite offen some transcode their stuff making it look like it's been done at 320k-bit, but it's artificial. I'll continue to use the format until suddenly it magicly stops working, but that will happen when john and george are back with the beatles and they're going back out on tour, or bonn scot of AC DC wakes up from his long sleep he's been in since 79. Not gonna happen.

Ah than saddly I guess I am an audio snob then. lol I can hear the mp3ness to some MP3s. Fair though some are better than others. But meh I prefer PCM WAV thanks. lol Na but maybe the matalicness of the PTR incoder jaded me like I said before.

        Geez, such negativity around here!

There is nothing in the world wrong with a 320 k mp3 at 44.1 khz stereo.

Listen on a good set of speakers and you will see. Not as good as a lossless file for sure, but unless you're an audio snob, there's nothing wrong with it.

and now that the license has expired, you'll see products that couldn't offer mp3 magicly gain the ability to encode to it.

Yep subject line says everything, the format is dead and no new licences will be issued to continue supporting or developing the format.

MP3 has had a truly remarkable run when you think about it, almost 20 years and the format has ben at the heart of changing the way we listen to music.

Now there are more efficient formats such as AAC out there and Lossless compressed formats such as FLAC, storage space has increased and so it goes.

There will be people who use MP3 for a long time to come but those will become fewer as more people adopt other methods.
