Hi Nigel,
I used 320K mp3s and found little difference myself to WAV quality wise.
Althought I dont doubt if you feed this into a decent Amplifier setup you
will hear the difference, the output can also be affected by the quality of
the soundcard.
I used 320k MP3 on CD players them alongside Viny

Hi Guys
All the advice is very much appreciated, and the views expressed about the
merits of different audio formats and players are of great interest too.

I think you have perhaps not been paying sufficient attention.
#1, please put replies /below/ the text you are quoting.
FLAC does little to resolve the OP's problem though, he already owns a

Hi,
Having to keep files in multiple formats for devices that didn't
support free formats was a big pain for me. The only solution was to
wait until the smallest excuse to get a portable audio player that
supported FLAC and OGG. This has made my life much easier.
I recommend an iAudio 7, not the
Personally, for portable players I'd recommend using MP3 at at least
192kbps, I have never been able to tell the difference between WMA and MP3
and they're both lossy formats. MP3 tends to be supported on more players
than WMA does.
You could always keep compressed and uncompressed copies, or you

Hi Guys
I'm a bit of an audiophile, and have a large collection of music stored in WAV
format to preserve the sound quality. Clearly it's not possible to copy many of
