baseballfan Posted November 19, 2005 Share Posted November 19, 2005 apple lossless is 50% of a wav file but is 95% of the sounds supposedly. Though there is definitely a difference from mp3 But doesn't "lossless" imply that it is 100% of the music, not 95%? Granted at 95% most people wouldn't hear a difference, but just on principle I wouldn't think they could call it lossless if it was actually losing 5% of the music information. I'm pretty sure that both .shn and .flac formatting is truly lossless, as in 100% of the musical information is retained - but neither of them incorporate any digital rights management.
