Better don´t use that method for evaluating what is lost from 24bit to
16bit. You will have real problems finding ANY music that has other
things like noise in bits 17-24 :)
Even if there is no pure noise it most likely has no relation to the
music... 
A funny example:

I wonder how many audiophiles worldwide heard this better Macrodynamics
with this Linn piece...
I don´t know a clean method to remove the upper 16bit like 2bdecided
did with that sample in Mathlab. It isn´t simply a volume up-down thing
in an editor.
