Lossless CAS platform is definitely the furture of music format but there are a very big risk.....that's how to prevent the illegal copy of such music files. The industry should have a scheme to prevent a second copy such as the SCMS (The Serial Copy Management System) as DAT adopted before.

The topic of illegal copying has been considered for some time by record labels in the music industry. More and more of them are offering high resolution tracks online. Why are they not as worried now as before about illegal copying? One answer is that experience has shown such infringement has not proliferated. Another answer is that copying and sending high resolution tracks around is physically prohibitive. Imagine an album of DXD produced by 2L of Norway has a file of 8 GB, about 1 GB per track, 8 tracks per album. A youngster with a PMP or iPod will decline taking it even if his friend offers it to him because his storage capacity will be overloaded. Alright a 24/96 track only has one quarter the size but is still substantial for his machines. And no one will send it around in mails even if there is capacity for the attachment because the uploading and downloading takes unduly long time. Yes, MP3 tracks are still being copied and sent around but because the price is much cheaper than CD, some prefer to buy selected tracks rather than wait for them to come somewhere.
Incorporating Digital Right Management as suggested is likely to kill high resolution sales because invariably it affects the sound. This will be a stupid move by the industry and there was already prior lesson.

CAS = "Computer As Source" ?! Where did you learn this? @@"

I only know CAS as "Computer Audio Source"

OMG. So surprising an "audio professional" (although only self-proclaimed) making this mistake.

Says who?

Like many acronyms, the term CAS is informally invented by people for pure convenience for the benefits of quick communication. AS far as I know, this is mostly a Hong Kong/Asia term. Countries with English as second or third language tend to make up short forms for convenience. It is not as commonly used by the American/UK audio press for instance.

For all I know, CAS could be "Computer Assisted Surgery" or thousands other representations. So to laugh as someone as being "wrong" about an informally spread term is silly. Just because someone else mentioned it before does not make it the official term.

As far as I am concerned, "Computer Audio Source" does not sound right in English anyway. To me, "Computer based Audio" sounds better; "Computer as Source" also "gels" better grammatically.

The term CAS.
I first learned about it in Kent Poon's web, HiFitrack and Design With Sound. It stands for computer as source.
Then I came across the term elsewhere that is supposed to mean Computer Audio System.
Then we have the web Computer Audiophile.
It is not in Wikipedia.
The "C" stands for computer, that is, using it or a varied form of it, for example, a storage system or a server to play digital tracks.

CAS for computer audio playback not really a standardized or academic abbreviation, no absolute right or wrong term, actually calling such playback based on studio master file from download, can be play back by mobile phone, memory player, universal transport, network streamer and of course computer, as "file based audio playback".

probably a few years later, broadband speed and cost much lower, cloud computing and storage (what amazon doing now), we don't have to purchase physical media or file anymore, we may purchase audio/video subscription fee based on usage or quality (24/96 or above premium quality, 16/44 CD quality and mp3 lossy), you can access to all media stored on server, streaming to device by wifi/3g, so the content not require to store, or not allow to be store and re-transfer (well, if the subscription allow to access all media, why taking extra effort?), just access to playlist and ready to go!!

Last.fm is doing so, just not reaching audiophile quality yet, until records company willing to release Hi-Rez source.

"""AS far as I know, this is mostly a Hong Kong/Asia term. Countries with English as second or third language tend to make up short forms for convenience. It is not as commonly used by the American/UK audio press for instance."""

totally agree. at first when i encountered this term i had no idea what it was.

traditionally computer is the cpu with other items put in one box. these other items like sound card, memory hard disks or storage media are peripherals. one can stores data from a remote storage device and that can be the source. so computer as source is misleading.

i can see the trend will go with pay as you play on demand. it is more like renting instead of owning the software. who still want to have piles of cds and keep your library showing locations/numbering.

there are many software which may help split big wav or flac files using splitter or cue. split files can be transfer to dvd discs as data and then rejoin together at later stage.
