Aye, even though this has gone a bit offtopic for the list I think a couple of replies with sources so list members can make their own minds up could be interesting. If it looked likely to descend into single posts pointing out something wrong with the previous posters then yes, take it offlist please.
I think I've pointed people at this site before but it might be worthwhile repeating it - http://www.audiomisc.co.uk/audioformats/lpcm.html
At the bottom of the audiomisc/index page, Jim refers to the Archive magazine. That used to be published by Paul Beverley who lives just outside Norwich. It is now published however by Jim Nagel. You can recognise Jim's writing as he always refers to himself with a lower case 'i', something I deplore (shades of McDonalds!)
So that might bring it into line with the A of ALUG and to bring it even further inline, Jim uses linux on some of his machines.
