No doubt you are perfectly correct, but the music still sounds lovely - and it was free. It is there to be downloaded and tried if you wish. If you don't, then there's no cause for a coronary, or a world wide ban. 2L has some excellent stuff. I tend to take the view that if they wish to make it available, good for them. I enjoyed the tracks; admittedly not over my sound system: just over my computer speakers. To tell you the truth, I've also often enjoyed music played over my kitchen radio, ridiculous though that might be also. I'll get over it. The 24/96 tracks I played via my Squeezebox 3 through my Nautilus 802s. Strangely I enjoyed them also, even though the music is downsampled by Squeezecenter/Sox. -- kesey ------------------------------------------------------------------------ kesey's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10786 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=63908 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
