W/ some programs, when you EQ the song, the files from WMAL's cut in and out horribly, as if it's losing the original signal very similar to an MP3. FLAC will not do this, nor WAV. For these two are the only lossless formats I use being that they're the most popular. Plus, DRM (used by many) becomes of a real concern, should you decide to D/L the bulk of your library. For example, you can test this by using WMP's EQ. Scale any mid-high frequency to the max setting, and you'll hear the obvious differences. Hense, the reason to use WAV's (despite ths size) in backing/using an identical match to the original redbook algorithm. |

What's next? Teleportation? I just sold a 3rd gen iPod 8GB I bought two weeks ago because it seems so impotent in comparison. The FM on the Zune 30 is the best I've ever experienced on a portable -and I'm a portable and home FM receiver collector - and it does RDS! which nobody talks about. How has you iPod changed lately? |

Why can't I figure out how to turn on the radio? |
