Hi to all,
I have an iPod, i use a Mac, but for audio I prefer to use EAC + LAME. On different web site, I have read that with an ABX, the AAC format at the same bitrate give a more better audio experience and the audio quality is very high respect to MP3. this is only marketing from Apple... or is the reality? I'm evaulating the possibility to switch to AAC if is very superior. But the question is another... - because use AAC when only Apple Player can use it? My car don't read AAC, my DVD player read only MP3. I have bought a Mac for his superior OS, respect to Windows XP, but actually im concerned about a problem... I see that the Apple World is too close... and some time is too similar to the worse side of Microsoft Thanks for the explanation. Bye! |

I was simply addressing the possibility as you presented it.
-------------------- Everything sounds the same until it is proven otherwise.
