[QUOTE="jonaskp, post: 542780, member: 26015"] That can be true. The problem for me is, that I would KNOW that they are not the best quality. I may not be able to actually see it, but just knowing it, would bug me. I know, it's pedantic, I can't help it. I might consider doing it with old series like Friends and Sex and the City where the quality is not too good anyway. The thing I like about ripping and storing my media lossless is that at any time later on I can do whatever I will with them, without loosing quality. Say I wanna burn a copy to DVD. I can do this without loss of quality because there is no reencoding taking place anywere. Had I first encoded it to h264 I would have to re-encode it back in order to burn it. I might not ever do that at all, but again, I like to know that I have the option. Same reason I rip all my musik in lossless. Currently I don't have audio equipment where I can hear the difference, but I know that I only have to rip it once and I'm set, no matter what system I end up with later and what formats I want to play. I don't consider disc space to be a big problem today. Big drives has become relatively cheap, so I'd rather spend a little more on disc space, than sacrificing quality. The great thing though, is that there are so many possibities that no matter what your preferences are, one of them are bound to suit you. Whether you want to reencode or keep the original lossless quality, they have all been covered here. [/QUOTE]
