pata2001 Posted February 12, 2006 Report Share Posted February 12, 2006 Why didn't you use 352kbps? The sound is "stunning" because you have a lossless version of the song, which means zero quality loss, and the quality is exactly the same as the original audio CD. However, as for now, Atrac lossless is only usable to listen your songs with Sonicstage, nothing more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Low Volta Posted February 12, 2006 Report Share Posted February 12, 2006 and you can only transfer in the 'chosen bitrate for the lossless track' (darn, it still feels weird saying that...sounds so wrong ) as any other bitrate will be produced by converting the lossy part of your lossless track so very unecessary degradation of SQrip to WMA-lossless (if you want the ease of not converting before you use the tracks in SS) or FLAC/WAVPACK,... (if you use other players mostly and do not want to use microsoft's proprietary format) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hpmoon Posted February 25, 2006 Report Share Posted February 25, 2006 Can you definitively assert, however, that the process of saving an ATRAC Lossless file to WAV format, either directly into a file or onto a CD burn, only draws from the low-bitrate share of the file and not the lossless portion? This is a very important distinction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
