Here's the question.. I have pretty much had to double the volume of my "stored" mp3 files to get them to play a a decent volume with the slider about 1/2 way up. I like to have headroom. Plus there are some music that digitizes pretty low, so that at defult, they need LOTS of boost.



I am most likely going to get a iPod this Xmas and am wondering what other do/don't do regarding default or a boosted volume in the tags.



More technically, exactly what does that "vooulme boost" really do.. instruct the software to boost it.. is it linear like a mechanical device? Where is the pont of distortion? i.e. will boosting the volume in software result in a sooner onset of distortion or using the "volume" controol in iTnes?
