+// This function is used to provide data rate feedback from an asynchronous sink. Feedback value will be sent at FB endpoint interval till it's changed.
+//
+// The feedback format is specified to be 16.16 for HS and 10.14 for FS devices (see Universal Serial Bus Specification Revision 2.0 5.12.4.2). By default,
+// the choice of format is left to the caller and feedback argument is sent as-is. If CFG_TUD_AUDIO_ENABLE_FEEDBACK_FORMAT_CORRECTION is set, then tinyusb
+// expects 16.16 format and handles the conversion to 10.14 on FS.
 //
-// Note that the USB Audio 2.0 driver on Windows 10 is not following the spec and expects 16.16
-// format for FS. You can define CFG_TUD_AUDIO_DISABLE_FEEDBACK_FORMAT_CORRECTION=1 as a workaround
-// to transmit the feedback value unchanged. Be aware that this might break feedback on other hosts,
-// though at least on Linux the ALSA driver will happily accept either format.
+// Note that due to a bug in its USB Audio 2.0 driver, Windows currently requires 16.16 format for _all_ USB 2.0 devices. On Linux and macOS it seems the 
+// driver can work with either format. So a good compromise is to keep format correction disabled and stick to 16.16 format.
