You can receive "benefit" from compressed files. You can sate your hunger at McDonalds. If Phillip Glass listens to music on a $300 Aiwa that's fine. His perogative. I know how much more I get from using a good system. As to comparing digital compression to SET, well that's just not right. I'm not a SET user but I can tell you that comparison doesn't work in any way. Also most large selling electronics seem to be hand held lately and less than $2K; phones, iPods, laptops. Only large screen TV doesn't follow the model except now in the price area. iPod owners should be encouraged to put the same songs in as MP-3 and lossless and listen to the differences for themselves. Nobody should proclain MP-3 is good enough or lossless is a waste of space. This idea you need hundreds of songs at hand doesn't wash. How many does one listen to in a day? When you go home at night you can easily change your library, even while you sleep.
