    Movie Database
    I just saw this thread today over in MovieWorld(yeah I know...I am slow to some things ) and think it is a great idea.So I decided to start one here so It would not conflict with that world.
    ___________________________________________________________________________________

    As you all know I have never been a big supporter of KazaaLite and hash files.But everybody else is so I am willing to change my routine for the forum.I still think it is easier for people to go through a program like SoulSeek for Music but we shall see.

    I need to go through my verifeds I have posted in the can because I am not sharing alot of them no more at the moment.When I was sharing them on Kazaa alot of people did get them though and that is why I brought them back to the top.
    ____________________________________________________________________________________

    Colt Seevers Albums and Infested Cats Music are 2 great ways to do the hash files with the pictures.

    But like jetje said it would be much more difficult with Music.And he is right,people have different taste in the quality of their Music.What type of Stereo Mode(Joint or regular Stereo)?What bitrate(128,160,192 or higher)?What Encoder?
    _____________________________________________________________________________________

    Any ideas form Colt or Infested would be nice.....and also suggestions from other members.Not in no big rush.....as we all know we get things done slowly sometimes around here.But it all works out good in the end.

    as far as the bitrate why not 192?

    that way that should be good enough quality and they can always use a program to lower it to 128 or whatever.

    also funky why not get one of the mods to start a few polls regarding the questions you posed that way you can go with what most people prefer.

    I agree with 192 bitrate also,that is what I rip my CDs and CDs I borrow from Family and Freinds...Infested Cats rips his at that bitrate also.

    The only problem I have is out of the over 1600 CDs I have downloaded how many are 192 bitrate?I usually just download anything 160 bitrate or higher...makes it easier to find stuff.But out of 1600 I am sure quite a few hundred are 192 bitrate.....I would have to go throiugh every CDR to check which ones but that would be ok...just take awhile.

    Just to express my support to you.
    I love your idea and you have all my support. B)

    I'm just too busy helping to start the Movie database at the moment.

    I'm just not sure if this database is necessary at all, because yours Verified music topic alone already looks like one. Perhaps all you need to do is combine yours, Colt Seevers's and Infested Cats's topic. You just need to ask a Mod to give you certain privileges with that thread (editing, merging, ...) and organize it a bit and post album covers.

    But if you are gonna try do it anyway, I suggest you sort it by artist name and put down album covers, perhaps even a Sig2Dat to an Albumwrap (whole album in 1 file, .rar, .zip, ...) if it exists.

    I wish you all the luck.

    I'd really like this too. There are plenty of movie verifieds databases on the net but not many music ones (that I know of).

    About the bitrate, why not allow anything 160 or above? 192 only would limit it too much and people could have trouble finding sources. FC's and others' threads are nice, but nothing compared to a proper alphabetised database. Also I would love to see albumwraps included. It would make it much easier to sort out my shared folder! at the moment I have aso many files in there and it's not always easy to match them up. I would also love a daily reccommended type thing, to point people towards music they might not know or search for.

    Despite the less than enthusiastic response here, I'm sure it would be popular. B)

    192 is definitely the standard for new rips. Older rips can always be re-done in 192 format if they are popular. My only suggestion, is that full CDs be separated from single songs. However I definitely like the "picture of CD, short description, then file list in hashes" format. Quick, easy, and it allows for simple organizing of threads later. Also, I think full CDs should come with a .m3u playlist or something like that. They are easy to make, and it would really improve the quality of posts on these boards. --

    :'( Only if they are from the original source.Once you have already downloaded them from somebody at say 160 bitrate there is no point in ripping them files to 192 bitrate.....only makes them worst.

    But I am sure you knew that.

    I think only full albums should be on there anyway. :-)
