Harry,
The understanding is that any losses from volume change are only due
to your playback hardware, and are not permanent. If you have a 24-
bit DAC, you won't hear the quantization noise added by changing the
volume. Even if you did, you could turn off the replay gain and get
the original audio. That's why it is still considered lossless.

Those are Replay Gain elements. Please check on Wikipedia or
Hydrogenaudio for more information on RG. In short, they are values
to normalize in a lossless way the audio volume.
But how can this be possibly lossless? You change the volume of the
audio tracks, so isn't this lossy or does the actual volume of a
track isn't considered as "audio quality"?
thanks in advance
PS: I'm a beginner, so it could be a stupid question!
