Mastered for iTunes anyone......
A Look at Apple's 'Mastered for iTunes' Program and its Effect on Sound Quality
http://www.macrumors.com/2012/04/30/...fDlvtqLyX5c.03 I just wonder why they would say that 24/96k would not be a good choice for the consumer......FWIW

So on a consumer stand point where they want to stuff the max amount of songs into their player, having 24/96 files ain't for them. |

Yeah I read that - he mastered the song so it would sound good when they used the apple encoder - sounds like a bunch of tests for me

24/96 for the consumer is just marketing hype, as professionals or producers of music we should really be better informed than consumers and know the difference between fidelity and marketing hype. G |
