Re: [Phys-l] iPod music compression



I've got several days of music on mine, and my 62-year-old ears can't hear the difference between the MP-3 and the CD. I can hear the difference in the LP's I've digitized, since I'm able to remover the most egregious pops.

Subject: [Phys-l] iPod music compression


I have 3000+ CD's, and am thinking of buying an iPod. Does anyone know how
the iPod compresses songs? Specifically, what frequencies get chopped off?
And can a music enthusiast like myself really hear a difference between
the compressed music file and the original song on CD?
