^That's correct, CD/ Digital etc. doesn't necessarily describe the quality. There are bootlegs (and even official releases) which are made completely from lossy sources; digital distribution doesn't always mean the files are lossy (like Mass Effect 3 N7 Collector's Edition OST, it's digital download, but it's lossless); there are cases when CD release has some mix of lossless and lossy tracks (Borderlands OST) and so on. Current vgmdb category only states the distribution method, not the quality of tracks... But it should stay like that - who wants to pay 100+ bucks for a pontentially lossy mastered tracks on a CD isn't probably going to ever fire up any spectrogram analysis software and such, so no point really...
