It is either lossless or it is not.
Not that I mean to flame your post but I would have to say that you're quite incorrect to say "That might actually the only objective statement you can say about ll versus l." Satement: a lossy codec removes information, in fact it removes musical information, in the process of creating the file. A lossless codec does NOT remove any information, musical or otherwise. What's not objective about the above statement? The subjective part is whether or not one can hear the difference between a lossy and a lossless file and that's where and when the fur starts to fly. -- ralphpnj Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels -> Snatch -> The Transporter -> Transporter 2 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ralphpnj's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10827 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=43910 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
