A few questions regarding possible lossy files

Hi,

I'm relatively new to this bit torrent stuff, but I was castigated on DAD awhile ago for unknowingly uploading lossy files. They told me a way to check was to use a 'spectral' view in a wav editor. I've just downloaded Thin Mercury.torrent and checked the files and it seems that only tracks 4, 6, 7, 10, 11, 12 & 14 are lossless. All the other files seem to peak somewhere between 12000 and 16000. Would I be correct in assuming these are lossy or is there a subtle explanation that I'm missing. If they are indeed lossy what if the procedure? message the uploader? message the mods? message the comments on the upload? If the upload is from a silver CD which happens to have a few lossy tracks on it, is that okay?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Mowda
