I'm comfortable with iTunes. I think my downloads from the iTunes Store sound real good from my HT connected to my laptop. Still, I'm on the lookout for better, so, I recently downloaded a few Diana Krall 24/96 flac tunes from HDTracks; and, I've been playin' em through Foobar. These tunes sound real good too; but, neither the downloading , access to files, or storage of files is as intuitive as using the iTunes Store and iTunes media player. Any thoughts from those here regarding their HDtracks experience? Do the hi-res files from HDTracks sound better than other media?
One more thing, in a comparison of aCD with the HDTracks version, the spectrum analyzer shows a greater frequency range from the CD, all the way to 17k while the 24/96 download only goes to 14k on the same Diana Krall material, Quiet Nights. What's that about?
