Which format is better?
vuzedome:
Multi-channel is easy, use AAC.
(click to show/hide)JVC pushing for SHM-CD eh? Don't want to argue about the practicality of SHM-CD, it will be pointless and branching really far off from the topic.
Same goes for Blu-Spec.
It's ridiculous when we're dealing it in a digital format, we have EAC and AccurateRip, enough is said.
kamuixtv99:
I don't like AAC. What? Multichannel? SHM-CD (2 ch) not SHM-SACD (or plain SACD). The op didn't mention his/her hardware.
Sure, AAC is way more better than MP3 or FLAC if that your ears tell you. But I have some devices that are not compatible with AAC.
kitamesume:
TL;DR - the equipment you use decides which to pick on either MP3 or FLAC.
got crappy equipment? 20$ headphones? onboard legacy soundcard? MP3 it is.
got professional equipment? 500$ headphones? never-ending hunger for top-of-the-line quality? FLAC it is.

^ That's the whole thread, really. I want to put it in very light words so I don't offend anyone - Don't say stuff like this:

What song did you listen to? Formats? What sound card do you have (NOT your motherboard's)? What speakers or headphones are you using?! If speakers, what wires/cables are you using? ... Those who own good hardware and the format is converted from an original piece to FLAC will notice the difference in quality to those that were converted to MP3.

sigh, im sticking with mp3 (galaxy s2 got 16GB left, n8 left 8GB)...
