+### Lossy and Lossless Formats and Their Conversion
+
+Music files can either be encoded lossy or lossless.
+Lossless formats can be converted from and to each other without loosing
+information.
+Lossless formats can also be converted to lossy formats to make the files
+smaller and save space.
+Files should not be converted to lossy formats more than once.
+Additionally lossy formats should not be converted to lossless formats as it
+increases the file size without adding any audio information.
+These not recommended conversions are called bad conversions.
+
+#### Detect Bad Conversions
+
+The bitrate, format and the sample rate can be usually checked with simple
+tools.
+For Linux a simple software solution for this is the `file` command.
+Running it will display these features of a given audio file.
+This will however only display the format features.
+Bad convserions as described in
+[the previous section](#lossy-and-lossless-formats-and-their-conversion) can not
+be detected by this.
+A spectral analysis can detect bad conversions.
+For this a audio analyzer like
+[Sonic Visualizer](https://www.sonicvisualiser.org/) is needed.
+Select a audio file and press `Add Spectogram` under `Layer`.
+This will display a spectogram.
+Music off of a retail CD and lossless songs have frequencies that extend at
+least up to 22kHz.
+If the frequency extends up to these 22kHz the file is lossless for sure.
+If the frequency is cut before and the file is encoded in a lossless file it is
+has undergone a bad conversion and is not really lossless.
