a good mate of mine works in AV installation and he still see's CD as the ultimate in terms of quality.
who does your mate work for? im in the same industry.
I'll find out. in a different industry to him!
fair point no offence was taken. I appreciate good well informed responses. I just feel that mp3's are a compromise. The files are compressed and the finer details of music are lost. I've tried it on decent systems on cars play the music of an Ipod etc then play the CD there is a massive difference to my ears. I agree perhaps I need to move on but a good mate of mine works in AV installation and he still see's CD as the ultimate in terms of quality. I will try the apple "looseless" format but this means reburrning my whole CD collection.
Apple did have plans to offer lossless audio content through iTunes, and were in discussions with the record labels to do so. I guess it's either in the pipeline, or they can't make it financially viable.
Thats interesting to know. Thank you.
