Will we ever see an option where we can encode a song to mp3 format and have it be lossless?
Since mp3 format is one of the most wildly used formats I'm surprised there isn't an option for lossless comprerssion. It sucks having only ALAC as the only option for lossless compression for the iPod. |

the battery life, stability and possibility of bricking my ipod kinda turn me away from rockbox Battery life is greatly improved now. Better than stock on 1st, 2nd, and 3rd gen iPods. Possibly better than stock on 4ths as well - don't have solid tests on that. at least 80% of stock on Video and Nano. Stability - depends on your usage pattern. Varies from very good to near perfect. Bricking - about frickin' impossible on the iPods - very well designed by Apple on this. No cases of bricked iPods due to Rockbox. -------------------- Creature of habit.
