I use Max on my Mac Mini to convert my purchased FLAC files to ALAC. The current version will also import them directly into my iTunes library. All tags and images are transferred along so there is absolutely no added work required. I believe dbpoweramp is what Windows users can use. Both are free to download and use.

Anyone else pick up the Rolling Stones 24 bit 172Khz albums? I picked up Beggars Banquet, Let it Bleed, High Tide Green Grass, and Through the Past darkly. I think these sound wonderful, and after a few hours of listening to the 24 albums, i have a hard time going back to the standard 16 bit files.

I also picked up Beck's Sea Change (24 bit 88.2) and Sonny Rollin's Saxophone Colossus (24 bit 192KHz). Both great too.

I picked up Let it Bleed and Aftermath in 88Khz. Very happy with the sound.

It sounds great on SACD, I can imagine how it sounds in high res.
