Freed At Last From Patents, Does Anyone Still Care About MP3?

The randomizing n my Focus ST is good, but when I tell it to shuffle play it always starts with 1 of 2 different songs, every time.

Sure, but they used AAC to rocket to success, not MP3. In fact, it was annoying back in the day because everything non-apple used MP3.

Youtube Music doesn't just serve the audio from a video.
They do serve the audio from a video if nothing else is available, but they also get releases directly from the publishers/distributors.The difference in sound quality is definetly noticeable.

Exactly, sometimes you just wanna jam to some mp3's out of an iPod like the good ol days. It's about the vibes

I care, because I e been using streaming media fr quite a few years ears and not kept up with an changes

I used to think this but the convenience won out. Now over holiday break, my teen discovered my crate of CDs that he doesn’t remember seeing in his lifetime!
And now I need to decide whether to buy a CD or DVD player to transfer to a more usable format - the last one I had was an old Xbox that is no longer with us
-
Could it be the sound system? Most people seem to prefer the convenience of Bluetooth, ubiquitous small speakers, and maybe that’s usually the limiting factor
-
No, I don't think you're as asshole at all, and don't doubt you can hear the difference. I just can't, myself. Or at least I've never been able to.
But I also watch DVDs and didn't really notice the resolution, either. (Old TV shows, that I can notice. )

I'd argue you've got that backwards; CD is to vinyl what lossless is to .mp3. That said, I know what you mean.

I should add that I have a hackish python script for that conversion. It basically mirrors the tree of MP3s and FLAC files, converting the FLACs and hard linking everything else. So it doesn't use too much more disk. Then I copy that to my phone. I could put it up somewhere if it would be useful.
But I don't have as much music as you, either.

IIRC that era of iPods had issues with their preamps. I remember when I switched from a Nano to a classic that there was noticeable clipping and other distortion where there wasn't before. I would have returned it but I had already sold my Nano...
