Of course you won't notice the sound difference when using crappy ipod earbuds. The better the system however, the worse the iTunes tacks will sound. So maybe for you they sound the same with your low end equipment but in general the best sound in order from best to worst would be : original 60's vinyl, vinyl 2011 reissue (which hopefully gets released), beatles stereo usb with 24bit flac files, 2009 cd remasters, .... then iTunes). If your happy that's great, just don't be misinformed.



A true beatles fan wouldn't buy individual tracks since practically everything they released was amazing. For today's music that's much more applicable to choose one or two tracks.

LOL. How can I be "misinformed" about my own tastes? (Also, there's a bit of irony about being called "misinformed" by a person who doesn't use proper grammar...)

Also, I appreciate your knowledge about "true Beatles fans" and what they will or won't buy. Time will tell how well these things sell.
