	Neil's World: Apple Lossless Encoder
		I’m guessing Apple may have optimised it for the PowerPC processor, in which case compile times on Mac OS X would be better than in Windows.
		It’s just a pity that Apple took the decision to re-invent the wheel when good alternatives already exist, although this Macworld column reckons this is because Apple may want to add DRM to it in future so that punters can buy higher quality files from the iTunes Music Store.
		I think the reason Apple didn’t use an existing lossless codec is because FLAC and SHN are relatively processor intensive to decode.

	dbpowerAMP - Apple Lossless Encoder
		That said, with Apples lossless encodes only being able to be played via iTunes and the QuickTime player (and not even QuickTime Alternative).
		The problem is Apple have put these lossless in.m4a which means the standard mp4 dBpoweramp codec needs replacing, and the Apple one is not too fast (read 4 seconds to initialize the library, just niggles but I don't like it).
		Yes, the differences between any of the lossless audio codecs will be far more difficult to tell than with the lossy codecs.

		Frontend and backend of XLD are prefectry separated, so the frontend is able to access the various decoder with the same interface.
		The reason why XLD did not support lossless encoder(except ALAC...because it is playable on iTunes) is simply the name of application, i.e.
