Okay dude, you seriously just opened a can of NASTY worms. It's lossless; THEY ARE THE SAME. THE ONLY DIFFERENCE IN LOSSLESS FORMATS IS HOW THEY ARE ENCODED.

Originally Posted by doctafonk I was also originally drawn to rockbox purely for the gapless playback feature, but there are a tonne of other features that make it great. eg: - Replay gain support - Playlists on the fly- Ive only really started using this one, but it is a killer feature. eg: while listening to a track, go back to your music tree and start adding songs to the playlist. then save/edit that playlist as you like. - cutting/pasting/editing files/folders - I dont use this so much, but can be very usefull. - dual boot - you can still boot back to original OS if you want to (eg: to watch a video). - simple copy and paste music from your HDD to the iPod, no need for seperate software (itunes/anapod etc) to copy music. and plenty more.... |
