I am waiting for my Transporter to arrive and wish to prepare my music library by ripping my CDs. I have already ripped 30 CDs into my iTunes library using Apple lossless format for my iPod, so would prefer to continue like that. However, I wish to obtain the very best lossless transfer and am prepared to have a separate library for Slimserver use. I note that Apple's lossless format stores the digital data in a file about 60% of the size of that on the CD. Surely, this is not true lossless? Pat Farrell says that all lossless formats are much the same. Tommypeters suggests using xACT for ripping. joncourage suggests EAC and mauidj seems to be in the same situation as me, being an Apple guy. Can anyone finally clarify what the best solution for optimum audio quality is? Cheers Ken
