Thanks for the detailed info, CaptainCommando. Saves me from getting off my lazy ass and doing the research myself.
I'm feeling like a bit of a lamer for ripping and storing my stuff only in a lossy format. Perhaps I'll do yet another (lossless) rip when I eventually get a BD burner.
Tangent: has anyone run into
CD Rot? I've got some older VGM discs (1992) and have not experienced this, thankfully. Maybe it's tied to inferior pressings.
