High-Resolution Audio Explained (PCMAG, February 1, 2012)
[Neil Young] was referring specifically to the compressed MP3 and AAC files most people listen to today. Truth is, they just don't sound all that good. […] Even 256Kbps (and yes, 320Kbps) files are still audibly different than what you hear on a CD, although at least those are somewhat closer to the mark. […] Switch to an uncompressed FLAC file, and all of the above flaws go away. […] Stereo sound fields become three dimensional, with a sense of depth and space. It sounds as if a veil has been lifted; everything has more definition and natural sound. -------------------- Save my friend from going homeless: http://outpost.fr/url/308w

I don't see any ABX tests to back their claims.

Perhaps not, but i'll gladly take the lossless files anyway, thank you very much.
