0 cauldron Posted March 27, 2008 Report Share Posted March 27, 2008 1. Linear PCM = WAV. The version used on audio CD's is about 1411kbps, and an hour's worth take up about 650MB.2. Lossless codecs are an attempt to equal the quality of Linear PCM without taking up as much space. In theory WAV files would be a better choice than making the player decode lossless files. 3. WAV files are often a big strain on space and battery life, hence the invention of lossless codecs. However, the WAV files don't require decoding, so you'll see low-end players be capable of playing wav (Sony E010, ipod shuffle), and more expensive players be capable of playing lossless files.4. A lot of softwares can rip CDs to WAV files. JetAudio, SonicStage, iTunes, and many more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is the sony compatible with anything like apple lossless? 16gb not going to be enough for WAV by the sounds of it.tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
