I was just pointing out the fallacy of Greg's post:

">>an Apple lossless file can be audibly different from the original.

It can't. It can only be alleged due to open-loop subjective listening tests."

In any case if you can hear a problem with differing CPU loads then there is a problem with your setup and the specifics of the amount of load don't matter that much. Unfortunately experience tells us that CPU load is often audible. There are reports here of people that indeed did A/B tests with lossless compressed vs. uncompressed with all other variables the same. As always the people who don't believe there is a difference don't accept that the experiments are controlled enough and the ones that do believe there is a difference don't care about anyone else's experiments :) Anyway I did my experiments before the IPod, I don't have an IPod and I don't really care :)
