Re: CD player

[Stefan Strahl <stefan.strahl@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Another idea would be to use a portable audio player that can play
lossless audio formats like WAV or FLAC.

For example the SanDisk Sansa Fuze can play WAV and FLAC
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sansa_Fuze). Or use an iPod together
with http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rockbox :)
