I should elaborate that the playback or burned disc is CD quality if the full audio file was compressed when it was created. One could - and some do - losslessly compress an mp3, for instance, and when decoded a lossy mp3 is the result. Pointless, but it happens. So FLAC, .ape or .wv is not a guarantee.

Hi guys, was off the grid this weekend.

Clark, thank you for your time and explanations and for the links, its very kind of you and I truly appreciate it. As with many things digital these days there seems to be so much to choose from. My only corncern (& thats not really the right word) with music download is that it looks like it could really add up. There was a great Simpsons episode where Lisa wracks up a $1,200.00 bill from iTunes & she did not even realize it.
Pretty funny stuff but there's plenty of truth to it I wager. Now with used cd sales on the net and even amazon, its tough for me to justify a buck a song (doesnt sound like a lot, as Scotty mentioned) when for a couple of more dollars I can have the whole CD, but thats just me. I would consider this new (to me ) alternative only for music that I could not find on cd which is probably where we are heading anyway. Untill then! (dont tell anyone but, I dont even have an Ipod oh for shame!)

Also, as a casual music enjoyer, having instant access to a song/s is not that crucial, but for someone like Scotty & TD I can see how this would be an invaluable tool.
I'll take to it in time, like I take to most things....Kicking & Screaming

I
NOW today, at $1.99 and $2.49, and $3.99 a track, its cheaper, right? BUT there's so much music out there now, and my average weekly spend for music is around $500/wk,and have weeks that exceed this, too. IF THERES FERROCIOUS STUFF I GOTTA HAVE IT! I'm buying huge volume, it's more costly than when they had to actually work to make product. And it is instantly available, OH IM A MUSIC JUNKIE!

gonna get worse when Patterson slaps a tax on them tunes

Due to reading this thread the other night it got me raking through my cd's and today i found a couple of moby albums i hadn't listened to in years. Albums are "18" and "Play",and its the first time i played these albums since i got my sub.A couple of the tracks are a bit not my style,never were, but all my old favorites sounded amazing,really deep clear bass on a few of the tracks.
