yeah if you got a kick ass connection with no INTERNET cap 320 is fine by most ppls standards

but I have a cap monthly before I get shaped and i don't want to download 20 meg tracks for 1 fucking album

Everyone knows DJs use 128kbps. Compression is important! Those mp3s can be awful heavy!! :music1:

even then, 320 is still a waste.
what&#39;s the fucking point of compression if the song is still 10MB?
+ proper lame settings (you must use 3.90xxx) result in sound quality as good as 320 anyway.

guess I&#39;ll way in, if you can find OGG get it, better than mp3, I think ogg is almost always going to be better than mp3 just because the people who take the time to make ogg instead of mp3 care about quality

[Adster]

Sparsley I agree with you a waste of time

I HOPE THAT IT WON&#39;T BECOME A COMPLETE STANDARD

just for ppl that don&#39;t believe me about how dare it is to live in Australia heres a link for you here now tell me its easy to get a 1 MB connection with no cap

[sparsely]

I agree.
as alternatives, ogg and mpc are the best.
the only reason I don&#39;t rip to those formats is the smaller userbase/compatibility
