    Metallica - Enter Sandman (mainly because I've just ripped it in m4a and flac formats and I've got my entire collection to "re-rip" after a recent "PC distaster).......

    And after a lot of listening/comparison, I've come to the conclusion that for me, the best format is FLAC, with m4a/AAC (apple format) a close second.

    I'm presuming that this is to do with FLAC being a "truly" lossless format.

    So if any of you lot want to buy a new "mp3 player" make sure it will support FLAC as well as m4a/AAC and rip into FLAC.

    Yes, I'd guess that FLAC files will be larger than m4a/AAC files so you wouldn't get as many to the pound, but if quality is important, then you know it makes sense.

    So something like one of theCowon players would do the job........

    Your choice....

        A decent cover by the Bloke from Wonder Years ( Iknow that is not true). Personally, I love a bit of rammstien, but have been going through a fairly makor don Mclean phase with a bit of Simon and Garfunkel...

        Actually, now I think about it, I'm going to stick some Frank Zappa on!

                Silence

                After a weekend of other people's power tools, shrieking kids and The Lanmower Chorus, a bit of peace and quiet is lovely.

                I might join Koomber in a bit of Rammstein later on, maybe with a helping of Nine Inch Nails too

                        Paul Jones: Radio 2... Followed by ' The Definative Leadbelly '. Or, maybe, ' Blues Deluxe ' by Joe Bonamassa... Or Robert Johnson...

                        Sod it, random on the MP3 player sounds good

                          Perhaps some Swervedriver in the ears via the noise cancellers so I don't get ticked off by the boss for being a noisy nuisance.
