Some basic questions. I was under the impression that you could not play hd tracks under iTunes on an iPhone/iPod, and you needed special software. Indeed, in the past, when I imported playlists, I could not import aiff files at a 96/24 bit rate. Now I can transfer the 96/24 files onto an iPod. I’ve converted those files from aiff to alac and installed the okyno hf player, but did not use that program to transfer the files. Is the fact they are alac the reason I can load the files?
I can also play the 96/24 files on both Apple Music and the hf player. Is there a chance the bit rate is reduced on Apple Music? I did not check the reduce bit rate box when I synched.
