one question i've not heard this question asked. you said you heard no
quality difference. well are you listening to the audio using the same
sound setup? i mean it can even sound better if his puter has an old sb 16
sound card and he is using some generic desktop speakers that dont sound
good, but after encoding them twice and put's them on cd or md plays it on a
very nice stero system, yes it's going to sound better there than on the
computer just becuase of the simple dynamics of what each can handle. so as
for the quality sounding better who know's everyone hears different anyways
