I hadn't. Interesting!


FYI you have a typo:


However there are some special cases where cant make use of FLAC

for what the MQA patents call 'legacy reasons. So lets now look
briefly at those...


You need "we" after "where".


Noted. :-)

I remain happy with my LPs digitised at 88k2/24 and downsampled to
44k1/16 after click reduction. As good as I think I'll get.


I've tended to use 96k/24 and then leave it as such after declicking. Saves
the bother of then resampling, and pushes any DAC reconstruction problems
up well above 20kHz. As things stand I have plently of disc space. But I
realise this is wasteful.
