| Why not use FLAC? I don't get why we need new audio formats?
FLAC is freely available non-compressed format. Instead of a bunch of different lossless formats, why doesn't everyone use the free universal one so we get some consistency. All we need is another format, that other plays won't support. | |

Because Apple doesn't recognize FLAC, so obviously it isn't a valid format. /sarcasm Letting one company decide what is and isn't viable is a big part of the problem. I refuse to have anything Apple in my world, I don't have Apple hardware or software.

| Neil Young Trademarks New HD Audio Format I'm not an audiophile and I cannot hear the difference between 256kbps+ OGG and FLAC, but I can hear the difference between 64kbps MP3 and 256kbps MP3/OGG -- well, just a bit unless I can hear aliasing in 64kbps MP3 format. I have a pair of Insignia NS-B2111 and Sennheiser HD280, but I don't think I'll hear that much of a difference between a $80/pair Insignia and a pair of speakers costing $400 a pair; for headphones, I don't think I'll hear that much of a difference between an HD280 or HD580.
