Does that mean you're not answering any of the questions?

Sounded like you were telling me, rather than asking me.

hi there,

I've found this old thread. I see HD Tracks now sells the following original PCM masters 24 96 of

Greatest Hits
Queen
Queen II
A Night at the opera
A Night at the odeon
On Air

They're not available to purchase outside USA, and can't see any other site where the original wav PCM not converted to FLAC can br purchased/downloaded.

Any idea or hint? thanks in advance[/QUOTE]

Be cautious, that might be just a simple transcode. It wouldn't be the first time a website sells HD tracks which aren't actually HD.

All these titles are real 24/96 HD waveforms. With exception of BBC Session 3 from On Air.

Thanks for this info. But I still haven't found al alternative to the official HD Tracks site to buy them from Europe. And also shouldn't flac be equal to wav? It's a lossless codec so it shouldn't matter... but wav = pcm won't involve decoding therefore in the playback chain the decoding session should be bypassed, so the lesser the processing on the file the best the result should be

Do you have equipment that cost 10's of thousands of whatever currency you use? Forget how music looks on a waveform, don't listen to the snobs that have paid over and over again for every reissue (which is exactly why they keep reissuing the same old stuff.. why shouldn't they exploit these people?) Find a version of whatever album on whatever format you like from the past and buy the rest on that same release. If you like the original cassette release then buy them!
