I can hear flac is better than mp3. maybe I can't hear all flac has to offer, but its a better listening experience. also the page 100% says it supports up to 2tb sd. the things you listed literally dont matter to me
That depends on way more than just the file format of your music. With a device like this one, you literally wouldn't be able to tell them apart.
I mean no one can even hear all the way up the bitrate of MP3s. So no one can actually hear FLAC.
No I was answering your question that the Sandisk didn't support that.
Cool. I was asking what is so interesting about this $250 iPod and how does open source benefit it? Besides holding so many songs you'll never listen to them I mean. It doesn't appear to have functionality a player 1/5th it's cost does. And no one has given me an answer on what functionality open source could enable for an mp3 player that isn't already available.
They don't answer your questions because they don't like the answers, simple as that. My advice would be to not waste any more of your time on this. That's what I'm going to do at least. You can't argue with fanatics.
