[QUOTE="vanniri, post: 1172616, member: 27897"] About 10 years ago I learned from a local musician and sound engineer Apple demanded at minumum hifi quality when securing music rights (unable to recall the exact resolution but I was suprise since the digital music debate was relatively subdued in the public domain at that stage). In this way Apple secured the key component of audio playback and only had to upgrade the hardware (or market it as such) to capture a market with ever increasing quality demands. The following is a very interesting article on Apple music playback: [URL]https://darko.audio/2023/10/apple-airplay-isnt-always-lossless-sometimes-its-lossy/[/URL] Personally when I decided to go digital I very quickly moved to a dedicated music server, in my case Aurender, to ensure the PC has limited control over playback quality.
