Think I've landed on the right place to start off this discussion..
So lately I've been asking myself which is better in terms of sound quality and spectrum generated. Someone hit me with the information that says songs on iTunes store are encoded straight from the recording source, hence produce superior quality to those encoded from CD. Is this really true ? And is it the main factor to say it's completely better than CD ripped quality ?
That said, would it be correct to think that even at the highest encoding settings on iTunes itself, it's still no match with AAC 256kbps on iTunes store ?? I'm confused
Any background information to explain are appreciated
