    FLAC, the mutts nuts !!

    I bought a surround system, only the 2:1 for the desktop. Was only a couple of thousand baht, sounds wicked.

    But I've just downloaded some FLAC format tunes. The quality pisses all over MP 3

    Theyr'e large files but well worth it.

    Here's some FLAC

    The Pirate Bay - The galaxy's most resilient bittorrent site

    The point of audio compression is so you can get out more.

    I've got most of the songs I like now in lovely FLAC

    Even if you cannot obviously hear the difference the whole experience just makes you feel better somehow ; maybe because you get more of the whole sound , not just a sketch of it .

    ok you cannot beat vinyl
    but you can get FLAC ripped straight from it too !

    like this Pink Floyd at an impressive bit rate of 2850 kbps,
    [ itunes are 256 I think. ]
    Maybe the pirate bay etc have it too.

    Pink Floyd - The Dark Side of the Moon (1973) [VINYL] {24-96} {MFSL UHQR 200g} - Demonoid

    but if you want it to, you can Rockbox it
    ie replace Apples firmware with Rockboxs,
    if your are confident at things like that ...

    Rockbox - Free Music Player Firmware

    I did not bother as my ipod only has 3.6 GB
    and FLAC files gobble up space.


    Good free FLAC player for the computer is Foobar 2000,
    nice and simple interface

    foobar2000

    VLC media player can also handle them, but I like to have a dedicated player just for music

    That's where Macs fall down, stuck with proprietary software.

    One day they will make Winamp for you and the world will be a better place

    don't see why not -
    this lad can play them
    VideoLAN - Download official VLC media player for Mac OS X

    and get the flac torrents from say pirate bay via
    Download - µTorrent - a (very) tiny BitTorrent client

    but hang on ,I've got a feeling you didn't try ,
    and just wanted to share your view of that ladies bottom breaking your screen

    How many characters are printed on the paper and are any in bold or italic? have you noticed any difference if printed landscape or portrait?
