you dont get pops crackes etc from CD's though, AND the idiots who record vinyls like to feed it through their mixer with all the equalizer settings changed for their sound system so the recordigns come out with the bass booming. With CD ripping, you rip via your CD ROM drive and the levels are at the same settings as the original masters therefore. It's pretty easy to tell the difference. CD Rips are better to have imo quality wise. |

The author of this thread has a dinosaur attitude. Kuffdam has the right idea. MP3 technology is here to stay, and the industry must learn to embrace it. The reason labels are struggling is because they are being so inflexible in their approach to promotion.
I don't know what, but they have to start offering something extra that makes the CDs and vinyls worth buying. Or start offering mp3s with some attached means of earning a profit. I want to see the music I love succeed, but if the promoters don't start adapting to the 21st century then we're going to be in trouble. |

i hate to say it, but the canadian is right! :D
labels that don't offer their tracks on CD don't get my business, it's that simple. CD's or CD-R's are fine, but i refuse to overpay for a self delipidating format such as vinyl. |

stop using them as frisbees should do the trick. ;)
half the crap never makes it to cd though, and the other half never makes it to vinyl... your damned if you do, damned if you don't. i'm just going to stop collecting soon, lol.
truthfully..... eventually i see digital download with copyright protection as the way of the future... eventually DJs will be using final scratch (or some variant) because it will be mastered to a point, and producers will just e-mail new tracks, and dj/producers will edit on the road, etc. vinyl and cd are expensive to distribute, deteriorate, scratch, etc. unforuntately digital download isn't "mastered" yet but eventually i see that as the medium of choice for many....
God, when i think that i've spent 6k or vinyls in the past year, that could have bought me approximately 6k mp3s!

I'm curious how it is that you know that the only posts being made by Americans are the ones with the American flag in their profile? You assume that everyone is from the country listed in their profile. My birth given name is trancebrat. Of course you should assume that...it says so in my profile. :rolleyes: |

i agree with what was said earlier on.
i like to rip all my cds in 320 kbps to have as much of a quality as i can
and i love cd albums that are unmixed, because you can listen to them on your cd player, use them in your cd decks and rip them perfectly
more stuff should come out on cd imo. i think things are slowly going in the right direction with more people embracing cd/FS mixing
another thing that pisses me off. digital downloads at less than 320 kbps.
i mean whats the point of offering downloads for sale at 192? i would pay for high quality downloads (320) but im not gonna pay for something at 192 that i can download for free |

excuse my ignorance, but is there really a noticable difference between 320 and 192? or only in a large place like a club? just curious...

yes alot.
the higher the bitrate, the more high frequencie the mp3 contains.
best way to compare is focuing on the percussion, hihats and other hats mainly.
thats why a 64 bitrate mpp3 sound so muddy , because all the sounds are not clear. |
