@kota1 I have not heard the Onkyo, but common sense and many experiments with upsampling have borne out my statement. Regardless of the nonsensical aspect of it, the claim that this DAP will magically convert MP3 to DSD-Quality audio should be punishable under fraud statutes. |
Even if you bought the physical CDs of someone who has ripped his collection to a hard drive, that would still be a copyright violation. The person buying the CD has a right to the use of the content on the CD, including ripping it to a hard drive for his own convenience. But, when he sells the CD, he would have to delete the files associated with the sold CDs to be compliant. It is simple--there was only one purchase of the right to the content, there cannot now be two different owners of the right to use the content unless there is a second purchase of the right from the holder of the copyright. |
@kota1 If you believe this device brings MP3s to the sonic quality of DSD, then I have a bridge to sell you. I'm sure it's a fine player, but its ad copy is a thin tissue of lies, exaggeration and puffery. If anything, converting 44.1/16 to DSD is a LOSSY conversion, since you are converting between formats. |
