Have you ever HEARD a upsampler? Have you compared a CD upsampled to 24/48? If you haven't, I suggest you keep your (uninformed) opinions to yourself until you learn more about hi-fidelity.

P.S. If you took a VHS signal sampled at 320x240, and interpolated it to 1280x960, it *would* look better. That's exactly what I'm doing with the audio signal. Hearing is believing, if you have a 24/96 sound card, I'll send you the scripts and you can try it yourself.

Upsampling doesn't improve your quality at all...you may also lose some quality depending on the algorithm used. Tell me this...if you put a VHS video on DVD, is it gonna look like DVD?

Anyone know why the LINUX port of madplay can't paly 24/48 MP3s, but the Wintel version can?
I upsample all my mp3s from 16/44 to 24/48 to take advantage of the wider bandwidth of modern soundcards.
