Could somebody explain what bits are exactly(in laymans terms).Im researching CD-burners and have found that some mention (bits)in their descriptions.I own a FOSTEX FD-4 digital recorder,but haven't found in the manual how many (bits)it produces.If it is 16bit should I get a burner like the MASTERLINK 9600 after i hit the lottery,or should I get the JVC XL-R5000 if compatable.Its certainly more affordable.Thanx for any answers you have.
