    I mean no one can even hear all the way up the bitrate of MP3s. So no one can actually hear FLAC.

    also the page 100% says it supports up to 2tb sd.

    No I was answering your question that the Sandisk didn’t support that.

    e things you listed literally dont matter to me

    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.

      when I compare an mp3 file to a flac file, the flac sounds better. theoretical maximum mp3 bitrate isn’t what I experience.

      sorry about the 2tb miscommunication. 100% my bad.

      even if 2tb is too much, it is expandable, and the one you posted isn’t. personally I have a few hundred gb. some people do listen to more music.

      I dont don’t think its worth $250 but its a cool project to be excited about.

      for me, open source is mostly philosophical. that won’t mean enough to everyone. I also expect better long term support from an open source project.
