"The FLAC 44.1 Khz 24 bit files are actually better than CD quality."
Since 24-bits @ 44.1 KHz IS the current standard, I am having trouble understanding how they are better than CDs. That being said, MAJOR props to them for not being content with Apple raping everyone's ears.(Yes, 192 Kbps is ear rape, and everyone who is content with that is deaf, stupid, or both)
I do hope this signals a change in the industry's treatment of the digital format, but I doubt it. Why take the extra time to encode tracks at higher quality and purchase 5 times the bandwidth when people are just as likely to purchase the lower quality crap.
