We're not living in a world where 10 MB is a lot of space anymore

We're at a point phones can have 256GB internal storage and 256GB micro SD cards smaller than a finger nail

We have 516GB SD cards for cameras literally a lifetime of photos, enough storage for an entire desktop computer!

RAM cards are getting cheaper by the day

We can process 24-bit 1411 bitrate WAV/FLAC format music endlessly

Even a 100$ android phone could accomplish the task

Why are we being charged 1$ a song running at 1/4th efficiency still?

An mp3 should at most cost 10 cents.

Apple is a corrupt company who has children mine their minerals and forces their employees to work themselves into suicide. They took the open source linux kernal and turned the entire operating system into a commercialized trashbin. How are you going to use them as an example over anything?

recommend a sound card, or a USB sound card.
I don't have the time or the crayons to explain this to you.

So, providing a solution to the problem you illustrated, instead of just agreeing with you is rude and makes them an asshole? You have head problems. Factually and logically if you cannot tell the difference you either have a hearing problem or extremely crappy gear. There is definitely a difference. Entire channels are dropped when going from lossless to mp3. Artists have had to curtail their music to fit into a smaller channel width and figure out how to make songs that still sound okay on MP3 instead of being able to use the full spectrum of technology simply because of what OP is talking about. On top of that, just because you can't tell the difference, regardless of the why; doesn't mean it isn't there. Especially when it can be PROVEN both scientifically and through raw perception of others on a wide scale. You are the asshole here it seems that no one else should be allowed to listen to audio that includes the parts you can't hear being your opinion. That also makes you a piece of shit for wanting everything to be limited to only as good as you think it should be and those who CAN tell the difference should not be considered at all in the matter. Well guess what.. That makes you a POS, self-centered and flat out not qualified to speak on the matter per your own admission. Simply put, your opinion on the matter is irrelevant and you should stop calling people assholes just because they offer a solution to your problem.
