I only came across this thread today and I've noticed a huge difference between my mp3s and apple lossless on my ipod.
I initially ripped my cds to Flac using EAC and then converted my Flac files to 256kbps VBR mp3s via Foobar.
The apple lossless files were done using itunes with error correction.
I wasn't expecting a significant difference but my mp3s sound a bit boomy and cloudy, with a loss of fine detail in comparison to my lossless files.
Is there something wrong with my conversion in foobar? I did have replaygain engaged for my flac files, could that be causing the problem?
I would love to be able to have my music on my ipod as mp3s rather than ALAC to save space and battery life.
Maybe you could give me some advice on a better way of converting my flac files?
Thanks
