I've been watching recent releases of Blu-Ray players and most of them just ignore lossless formats like FLAC, WavPack and so on.
They ship with MP3 and some are shipping with AAC support, but FLAC is a dream... Any logic reason besides contractual ties with proprietary formats? |

polemon, what you wrote makes sense. I also see that way.
Concerning WD, I'd have to acquire another hard disk and their price just went to the skies. |
