My intention was not to improve sound quality because the literature
states that lossless = lossless.  I did not anticipate a change in sound
quality.  My intention was to get away from Apple's proprietary way of
doing business.  However several people have listened to the system
before and after.  The difference is not subtle; it's so dramatic that
everyone immediately commented, even before they knew that I had made
any change to the system.

SqueezeBox Server Version 7.4.1
Microsoft Windows XP Professional Service Pack 3 (updates current)

Player > Audio > Bitrate Limiting = No Limit

I re-ripped several CDs (classical and pop) and played the same track
in different versions: the ALC version, the converted FLAC version, and
the ripped FLAC version.  There was a dramatic audible difference
between the ALC and both FLAC versions.  There was no audible difference
between either FLAC version.
