GUEST,Lou Judson Tech: How audio has improved (36) RE: Tech: How audio has improved 11 Feb 18


"Lossless flac" is indeed compressed, meaning smaller than PCM WAV files. May not be lossy, but it IS compressed.

And yes, CDs carry digital audio, but it is a specific format that needs to be converted to whatever format you use, be it WAV or mp3.

But saying CD audio need to be "digitized" is a effect of media and public stupidity, to us audio engineers. The great unwashed (meaning non-engineers) thinks making an mp3 is "digitizing" :-)
