and btw, black market part is also a joke

Lol, but there is right?
For this kinda stuff?

pm me your list. if its good, why not?

they do, but not in black market for sure, maybe some kind of 'underground' place

congrats.

sadly my choice of songs does scarcely come in 24bit format.

that is to mention that quite a number of homebrew metal songs, demos, and chapters that are still in cassette tape formats.
some got remastered and even sung covered by modern bands but all the originals are lost. so sad mang.

Haha, not willing to sell my precious collections even if I can~

no, lossless is lossless. You lost nothing with it, this has proven mathematically. .wav is useful for archiving process if you're interested in recording process, not for casual listener because you can't use tagging on it.

Bro, mind explaining about this part? The file I ripped out is .wav but why u said it is not useful for listening huh?

I think he meant that using .wav for casual listening isn't PRACTICAL. Players that reads tags wouldn't display things such as artist, album and song title. I tried, and although it seems that I can tag it, when played with Foobar2000, it still won't recognize the artist or album.

Tagging means renaming the file?
If yes mine work after rename file and play with Foobar wor~

No no. It means a bit like putting all the info within the file. Renaming the file name is different, tagging it embeds it with stuff like the artist, album, album year, track no., etc. etc. I use AudioShell tag editor to tag my mp3s and FLACs after ripping them. Like giving a soldier his military necklace(that metal thing around their neck, which is their ID tag).

Play a WAV file in Foobar2000, and you'll see that it can't display artist and album name, it can only show you the file name.

Tagging means putting the Artists, Year, Genre, Composer, Track number, Lyrics as well as other miscellaneous information on the file itself.

Oh, yeah it only show the file name~
U tag one by one ah?

That means only downside of .wav is cannot tag but quality better than FLAC??

Noted, thx~

Quality is not better than FLAC, lossless is lossless. It's like the different archive formats (e.g .rar, .zip )

Quality is the...
SAME
SAME
SAME
SAME
SAME
SAME
SAME
SAME
It's mathematically loseless. That means each little detail of the music is already in the file. Which = No difference in quality.
