Tired of people taking MP3’s and converting them to Lossless? You should because you’re not getting the full lossless sound quality. Only a straight CD to Lossless file format gives you the music you’re looking for.

I found this program called Informer.

Informer – Neill Corlett’s Home Page (http://www.neillcorlett.com/informer/)

It reads the music you’re playing and can tell you if you’re listening to a real lossless music file, or a fake lossy music file. It’s done by reading the wave of music. If there isn’t a steady wave of music showing between the red and greed bars, then your music file isn’t Lossless. A Lossy music file will have break ups between the red and greed bars with large black gaps. The screenshot on the right is an example of a fake lossless file.

Great program that I think everyone here who likes to upload and download music should have.

I think "tired" is a mild way to put it (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/Understatement) ..

Neato! going to look into this.
So far, I’ve been using Adobe Audition to view the Spectrum.
And TAU Software’s "auCDtect" analyzer to read .WAV files (the lossless format needs to be converted to .wav in order for the software to analyze).
I don’t like using "Audiochecker"… not one iota.
