Lossless and lossy audio formats for music

Before changing the speakers in my car I thought that MP3 was the digital audio format that I would prefer for our entire cd collection. Last week, I was told that I should use lossless formats instead, but I did not care. But that was before yesterday. When out driving with the car listening to tracks on my Ipod I turned the volume all the way up to max without any problems. Somehow I was not pleased, I thought the sound…was a bit bad. But, then I switched to the cd-player…and whow!! So, now I have to delete all the MP3’s I have ripped, and instead use the FLAC-file format. You can read all about it here
