This request makes sense to me, assuming the master recordings were created at a higher bit rate. RealTracks (and RealDrums) are a means to an end: constructing a song, preferably in a DAW that can handle higher bit and sample rates. Mix and master using the best quality available, then render down to whatever you want, 16 bit for CDs or whatever for MP3. It's not as if someone is going to play a raw RealTrack file in an MP3 player.

BIAB would have to be improved to handle 24-bit, perhaps converting to 16-bit for song development but exporting at 24-bit?

This would also make the audiophile drive even larger to accommodate these larger files. Nevertheless,

+1
