[CUBE] itunes store music quaility

[Kunga]

Make sure the "Sound Enhancer" is OFF. Watch out for overloaded 
equalization. Pray.

Apple Preys on non-audiophiles like you to keep the iTunes store going. 
I will NEVER buy a track from the iTunes store. It's CDs for me all the 
time all the way.

I rip 'em at 160 kbps AAC. Apple only sells 128 kbps AAC files.
