no i don't. it's an uncompressed/lossless format smaller than a .wav, like .flac.
unlike .flac however it is compatible with all mp3 players and mp3 software apps.
rtfm.

Thanks Jeroen!
"unlike .flac however it is compatible with all mp3 players and mp3 software apps. "
So true!
I just downloaded the package and I still have to test is with my mixapplication. If this work I sure will use this instead of flac from now on.

the major downside of course is that current mp3 players don't have the mp3hd decoder, so while it will still be able to play the file, it will simply leave out the 'HD' content. In this sense, it wouldn't make any sense to fill your mp3 player with huge files that sound the same as your old mp3s.

A small update from the manufacturer will solve that.

its not much smaller:( but id tags and mp3-player compatibility maybe will make this popular. i wouldnt mind having lossless portable and apple surely wouldnt either, selling HQ mp3s and bigger i-pods too...

you mean .wav, like a wav file, right, a wav file, that's what you mean, right? .wav, right?

actually the supposed file sizes on the site look alot like FLAC, so the only advantage would be the .mp3 extension?
well, thanks for the info anyway.

oh and for music, a 320kpbs mp3 (universally compatible) would be far from easy to detect side by side from lossless
