Generally, what you need to know: - it's lossless - it's compressed so it saves hard drive space - it's natively supported on the Squeezebox - it's easy to stream wirelessly Unfortunately the iPod doesn't support it unless you use the Rockbox firmware. But there's not too much point in lossless files on portables due to file size and battery life issues, plus you generally won't hear the difference in a noisy environment with earbuds. -- Mark Lanctot ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mark Lanctot's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2071 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=34834 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
