Let me first start by addressing the cross post. I did so only because
the original post was cross posted. I wanted to insure that each
person whom may have read that in their own private group would get
the benefit of my post. Generally speaking cross posting is only
frowned upon in groups that participate in otherwise illegal
downloads. I guess one could argue that any postings could be deemed
illegal if the music is not purchased. Oh well.....enough of that.
The reason I am replying is to give some information about the
differences between audio formats. Not to be lectured to. Please see
this website for an education before you start casting misconceptions.
I now see why I will choose to not participate in this group. Too many
take over types and dictators. Sure wish Andrew was back to straighten
out the messes in these groups. His original group was conceived from
his youthful vibrance and a basic love for music and was also a
trebbie himself.
Enough of this babble. Here is the site. Please do your own homework
as well.

Enjoy your groups and do what ever you need to do. I will never post
here again.
PS - Ignorance is NOT bliss....
