Hi Folks,

Just wondering if anyone is ripping music to flac. If so, what software are you using and are you streaming to an amp/receiver?

Cheers,
Hamid

I've always gone down the WMA route for audio, probably because it's better than MP3 (which lets face it, isn't difficult), and also because of its support and integration into Windows etc.

Since Spotify came along almost a year ago though, I haven't bought a single album since. Sad

I may be a heathen for it it terms of sound quality, but it's a bloody great service! Thumbsup

I've just got into FLAC and I'm quite happy with it. I could go down the WMA route and I may still, if Pioneer aren't able to sort out the issue I've got with my receiver. I know it's definitely not the FLAC files I've created as they work fine through WHS with Asset Upnp Media Server installed. I'd just like to be able to play FLAC through WMP12 (Sharks Codec pack installed) using the Play To option, just so I'm not faffing around on the receiver. I hate listening to good music at poor quality because it ruins the whole experience.
