If you look above, you can see that Steve started with a WAV file
(test.wav) and used the encoder to turn it into an mp3HD file (mp3HD.mp3).
He then used the decoder to turn that mp3HD file into a new WAV file
(mp3HD.wav).
He then compared the two WAV files: the original, and the
WAV->mp3HD->WAV file, and found them to be identical.
Clearly, mp3HD can be described as lossless, at least, if not actually
useful :)
and there is precedent for associating a lossless format with a popular
lossy format, by adding the tag "HD": consider Dolby Digital and DTS in
the DVD world, which are mostly lossy, and the new DD TrueHD and DTS HD
MA, as found e.g. on Blu-Ray, which are lossless.
cheers,
calum.
