Oh goody! It's in lossless! Only problem is to ID-Tag these things and convert them to FLAC for listening pleasure!

Since you're in contact with Connelly, I thought it would be a good point to bring up that AoD isn't in lossless, whereas TLR is. My question is, why aren't both in lossless?

Probably because TR AoD's soundtrack might be in the format of a "composer promo". Often they're kept in MP3 format.

I thought it'd be because of how much of a standard the file format is?

.mp3 wasn't that big back around when the first five games were out. So .wav was just used, whereas when AOD was around .mp3 started becoming some form of standard...

My personal opinion on the matter

There's that too, but composer promos are these days put online in MP3. There are a few otehr examples.

O good, I'd love to have instrumental scores in lossless!

I always buy the physical CD release of scores 'cause I am an audiophile (defined as a person who enjoys extremely high quality of any audio)... I'd even buy a vinyl of some records (like The Dark Knight) if I had a music player to support it...

I am an audiophile too (I have a Technics turntable at home, apart from other audio devices I own) and I'm buying vinyl even these days.

I would really like to have these in FLAC format rather than Mp3 - there are no words to tell the difference in quality.

Pete's told me he'd like to replace the TRAOD mp3s with lossless equivalents once options resolving the aforementioned problem have been explored. I think the transition will be seamless, so keep an eye out
