    When is MP3 loss detectable?

    Here I go again... not reading all of the new posts before posting a reply - so I end up with this: 3+ posts Anyway; You guys have given me a lot to consider. I'm going to have to do my homework now, so I can make the best choice for my budget. I want to first check my PC to see if it has a...
