I don't know a great deal about Apple lossless, but that can't be true
of all Apple lossless files, can it?  It must depend on the sampling
rate of the file.  Since the Duet and SB3 are only capable of 48 kHz
decoding, higher rates must be downsampled.  I wouldn't think a rip of a
standard redbook CD at 16 bits, 44.1 kHz would have to be downsampled
just because it's encoded in Apple lossless.

The Touch is capable of natively decoding 96 kHz sampling rates.
