Re: 24-bit flac files to disc?

the thing with 24bit files is that many soundcards can't even play them properly, they just truncate it to 16bit in a less than ideal fashon. you also can't burn them to cd unless they are dithered down to 16bit. I would recommend just getting the 16bit versions since the seeder has taken care to convert it as nicely as possible from 24bit to 16bit. 24bit shows are for listening on computers with good soundcards hooked up to a good stereo... not sure what else ppl are doing with them.

you should be able to play them with foobar2000 (link in my signature). get the special installer and choose "full installation" when installing.

hope this helps
