I've read a great deal of threads on how you can convert WAV. to ALAC in iTunes without any difference in sound quality.
Some people stated that there is no loss of information by converting one Lossless file into another.
However, when I went and did this with some of my albums on iTunes (previously ripped in WAV. format from a CD) to save on space, the files went from all 1411 kbps to a range of around 800-1100 kbps.
There is no change in bit rate (16), and the size of the files have lowered as expected.
Just wondering if this is something to worry about, or if there is a solution to this problem.
This is my first post on Head-Fi, any feedback would be appreciated greatly!
Thanks! ~Tomahawke
