But I'd assume that a lossless copy would contain identical sound to an original AAC encoded. Compared to a CD raw file, AAC have of course some data missing, but that was in place to start with obviously. One could also note that to some extent it's possible to add sound quality trough digital wizardry (psychoacoustic effects), but obviously that doesn't mean you can restore the original sound, only make it sound subjectively better. iTunes do a particularly bad job in this area, so I've turned off its "sound enhancement". -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
