I purchased a 40 GB 4G iPod this week and I love it! I think the real benefit is the combination of iTunes and the iPod. I have so far ripped approx. 50 CDs in a few days, and it is just so simple. Syncing w/the dock is easy, too. Encoding at AAC 192 Kbps. I have tested several titles from many genres against the original CD, and have yet to notice ANY discernable differences!!! Have tested through a pair of Bose 301s and old Sony Studio quality headphones.
I have used the LAME plugin in the past on my G3, but it was so slow, I barely encode in MP3 on OS X now. I have not tested the plugin on my new G4 eMac yet, but the G3 would be lucky if it hit 1.0x! Does anyone have any information about the purported hidden features in the 4Gs that Apple is allegedly going to ignite sometime in the near future?
