Have you ripped your CD using a lossless format?
Sorry if this has been asked before but has anyone done a competitive
review of the three iphone controller apps listed here:

Sorry for not explaining my self clearly. What I need to see such

It's a shame with the iTunes store that you can't try software out for

If you have iPeng and a Denon network capable amplifier you might want
