    how something can be both compressed and lossless at the same time

    I assume most people who’ve used a computer are familiar with lossless compression formats like ZIP files.

    Of course, though, it doesn’t matter how familiar an audiophile is with digital formats. They’ll still believe that more expensive cables sound better, and they’ll keep on believing that even if you show to them that they can’t tell an expensive cable from a bargain bin one in a blind test.
