Thanks for the information. I have always used audacity to capture the song, and exported as wav file, flac and mp3. Though mp3 is the worst format I still have to use it, as none of the stand alone players (cheap chineese ones) could play anything but mp3.

In case of portable players and tiny earplugs reproduction is very suspect anyway. Many apply boosts to the music so that it sounds better on headphones. The end result when compared with the original wav is ghastly.

I use the flac for playing on the computer and wav to transfer it to CD.

Good practice.
