"lossless music isnt what its cracked up to be. yes, in theory it sounds good, however many people lack the decent equipment to enjoy it. i'd rather take a 100-120mb VBR MP3 album over a 680-700mb lossless album."

could you please explain this a little more?

what do you meen by decent equipment?

i can hear the differance between a 320k mp3 and a wav file on my 30$ portable CD player and 20$ sony headphones....

lossless music is for picky people (like me), if you dont care about sound qualety that much than by all means stick with mp3s or whatever format you want.

i can hear the differance on my "el cheepo" portable cd player AND on my not so el-cheepo computer, but if you cant than there is no need to bother going lossless.

each to his own.
