Question about The Breakfast experience on 3rd Eye Girl site

I'm sure someone on here can clue me in here. Are the downloads on the site in lossless format? I prefer high quality downloads as opposed to compressed formats.

In addition to Chopingard's reassurance, the Store FAQ states:


WHAT FORMAT ARE THE MUSIC FILES?
Whenever possible, audio files through 3RDEYE Tunes are offered in WAV format.

I downloaded mine back in February and it's an MP3.

Not the song itself, the remix EP. The 3rdEyeGirl download is indeed WAV.

The download of the original track was first available as an MP3 file.

The request is about 'The Breakfast Experience' download which is available in WAV format.

To be fair to the OP, it's a valid question. The FAQ says "whenever possible," but the individual files never say what format they're in. So how is one to know that in this case it just wasn't "possible," whatever that means? (Last time I checked, there is no song in the world that can't be offered in a lossless format).

No confusion, no tears. No enemies, no fear. No sorrow, no pain. No ball, no chain.
