I noticed this too so I checked the Audio MIDI Setup and somehow it was changed from 16bit to 24bit still with 44Khz. I usually keep it at 44 & 16bit but the 24bit setting sounds better. If I upsample to 96Khz, it sounds off to me.
Does anyone else enjoy the Genius playlist creator. I have a huge library of over 17,000 songs and it look a little over an hours to 1st setup. I usually listen to albums but the playlists remind me of listening to satellite radio except with lossless quality. I makes much better use of my 16g iphone and it so easy to create new playlists to keep the music fresh. It will have an on-the-fly Genius creator after tomorrow upgrade but I don't see that as useful with the smaller library on the ipod itself. Probably worthwhile on the ipod classic.

Is it just me, or does anyone else agree? |
