Ponomusic ( https://ponomusic.force.com/ ) is a high def music project backed by Neil Young. Its an inline lossless digital music player, due to ship Q1 2015 at $400 a pop. Their library is rather limited at the moment, but they plan on expanding rapidly as more licensing agreements are signed with artists and publishers. That aside, they claim to at least attempt to improve the throughput quality of non-lossless files -- even mp3's -- as well, meaning you don't necessarily have to buy their remastered files for it to work, with the aforementioned caveats on output quality. Their files are extremely dense, turning what would be a 3-4 meg mp3 into 50-60 meg file, if memory serves. Their current players are expandable to 128 G -- 64 G on board, with a 64 G slot So, is this a game changer in high-def listening, or a well-intentioned but ultimately non contributory measure to improve the art?
