RE: 24 vs. 16-bit flacs

They're just files, so why can't he burn them to a CD?

That said, I don't know what might play them i.e. decode the FLAC and also output the 24-bit audio; I've never tried it, all my 24-bit FLACs are only on HDDs.

Also, a typical pop/rock album at e.g. 96/24 probably wouldn't fit on a CD, 48/24 usually should. Practicality be damned...you can do it even if hardly anybody does, maybe burning to DVD would be better. I kinda doubt any gadget that could decode/play 24-bit FLACs [edit: from CD] also couldn't do it from a DVD (cheaper than CDs now too).
