    Thing is, storage isn’t at a premium anymore, so there’s no reason not to use lossless even if you can’t hear the difference.

          Good for you, i had one of those.
          Now go check the storage prices now and please define what “premium” is, 'cos last i checked they’re being overhyped - not as much as RAM, but on a similar trend.
