Lossless is cd quality, right?

Isn't vinyl higher fidelity than cd?

There's the dog. You can't fake that stuff. Confess with your mouth.

A very pleasant surprise for me. It could have been a playful closure.

Sometimes vinyl will be mastered differently than the CD and will end up being of a higher quality. That's rarely ever the case with Pearl Jam, though.

That's more an issue of overall dynamics; lossless audio files can also, theoretically, be of a higher resolution than can fit on a CD. For example, the live bootlegs are now sold in 24 bit lossless audio for those who want that option while CDs can only handle a maximum of 16 bit.

It's definitely possible to have digital lossless files which are of higher quality than the CD.

Even though I do wish this had been another new song, what we've got is a textbook example how to improve Ed's solo efforts.

Eddie Vedder can still sound so brilliant. Makes me even madder for songs in which he does not.

I'm thrilled with how this turned out. I may never listen to the uke-solo version again.

I'm always randomly craving to listen to this song and then put it in my playlist as the next song no matter what I'm listening to.

Also, "Yellow Moon" just smacked me in the face with awesome. I've decided I don't have enough negativity in me to dislike FD.
