That is a very interesting point about the idea of no difference in quality
at different bit rates since3 flac format is, after all, lossless.
Regarding EAC, for some reason, EAC will not encode in flac at all for me.
I posted the first two CDs of John O'Conor Beethover Sonatas using flac
frontend.
If the lower compression rate seems good to you all, I will continue
posting tomorrow or Saturday. It will take a little time to post all 9 CDs,
since I cannot find any metadata for this set, I type the track info out
myself.
