Grrrr. So it's lossy.How do I buy lossless?
m4a is Apples version of MP3 I believe...I'm not sure you can specify or pick a format...interested to find that out myself.
Arent WAV files lossless?
dang I set my preferences for WAV encoding and bought another album, but the files came through as m4a again!
Perhaps spend your money on Top Gear episodes.
Ah, I understand. Thanks. Too bad I already cashed the cards. Dang.Regardless, at least I know iTunes is not for me.So where do people get lossless apple files from? Ripping CD's?
I buy used CD's from Amazon or half.com, and rip wav files then store them. Its the coolest thing..sometimes CD's are $.75(thats right 75 cents) plus $2.98 to mail them...its great. The other day I ordered every Radiohead CD-well 5-and it only cost me $22 shipped. Steve turned me onto that way, I haven't gotten burned yet of course now I will because I said I haven't.
I went to wav files from Apple Lossless because I thought it was the "right" thing to do, shoulda stayed with Apple lossless as I can't hear the difference. Adding a DAC though definitely helped even the m4a's sound better, just didn't have the funds to do a touch, and the flexibility the DAC brings has really paid off using my PS3 as a transport. I mentioned in another post that today I switched back to how my setup was before adding a DAC and I couldn't take it...aahhh...like night and day.mchuckp-how do you setup two itunes libraries??
