Stereophile: MusicGiants "First Company to Offer High-Fidelity Downloads"

Stereophile: MusicGiants "First Company to Offer High-Fidelity Downloads":
'Apple has sold in excess of 10 million units of iPod, and they've sold approximately $29.66 of music per iPod, so that device has been used for something other than just buying iTunes music.'




The longer article is about a company that is selling lossless encodings of music over the Internet, with bit rates of 450K to 1100K, using Microsoft's mathematically lossless encoder.



They are targeting the hi-fi nuts who listen on fancy systems in a quiet location.



Maybe when my kids are grown up I'll get to listen to music in that kind of environment.
