How do I know if iTunes files are all 'lossless'?


Hey gang, bear with me as I know just enough about computers to 'be dangerous' -- my Q., I have hundreds of songs on computer in iTunes and also in my iPod Classic. I'm aware that songs bought through iTunes are MP3 only, but most of the CD's I downloaded over the years SHOULD be as 'lossless'.

How do I find out which files/songs/albums are 'lossless' vs. compressed MP3?

Thanks to any and all.

Go into itunes and right click on a track name. Select "get info". A window will open up that contains info about the track, including what type of file it is. Lossless files are called "Apple Lossless Audio Files". A typical lossless track will take up more than 20MB.
