You are misinterpreting my statement. "closer to the original can mean beyond
the ability of the human ear to tell the difference.

One of the fundamental things you have wrong is this 5 to one compression. It
is not compression. If set up correctly 80% of the digital information on a CD
not heard by the human ear.
Don't confuse bit wise reduction with compression. Compress schemes pose
limits, like FM cutting off frequencies above 15,000 CPS. ATRAC does not do
this.
That the set up program on Windows 98. It is only about 30 MB. Yet when all of
the Cabs are opened, you will have several hundred MB of space used up on your
hard drive.
