Is it not a lot of music oriented and master oriented forums arround . But even there opininons may vary .
The record companies does make it easier either , back in the day they where out to make a quick buck . Now its a revered classic and where did the master go . A lot of master have been found in attics ,cellers storage of all kinds and some not at all, some remasters are created from the only sources avaible sometimes vinly or 78's ? I think you have to research every work you plan to buy . Use Google a lot there is always some <inset artist> entusiast somewhere who know everything about his favorite . Fyi the reason many uses lossles formats are not only for sound . They are perfect copies good for archival its a copy of you CD . And you can always make lossy mp3 or otherwise from those originals . Lossles files can be tranfered to other formats without further losses . Tranfer an mp3 to some other format and it will lose somehing in the process . This computer world ,formats and application age vary fast , its a real problem to migrate data to new formats . -------------------------------------------------------------------- Main hifi: Touch + CIA PS +MeridianG68J MeridianHD621 MeridianG98DH 2 x MeridianDSP5200 MeridianDSP5200HC 2 xMeridianDSP3100 +Rel Stadium 3 sub.
