"Duran Duran's "Planet Earth" (4:03) is 40.9 MB - 1411 kbps in AIFF, and 29.2 MB - 1005 kbps imported in Apple Lossless audio."
"Apple Lossless provides full uncompressed CD quality audio in about half the space of the original file"
ok, about half of 40.9mb (AIFF, WAV, SDII) is not 29.2mb (Apple Lossless), it seems to be more like 3/4 the size, not half ...are you really saving much disk space? Does Toast, Jam or any other CD burning s/w recognize AppLos files?
I use an ProTools HD system with Genelecs and Adams spkrs and MOST material sonds pretty good at AAC (and it's 1/10 the file size). Of coarse none of these sounds as good as the original 24bit 88.2k files.
