It's a symptom of my birth disorder, Always-Rightedson's Syndrome
I had a lot of fun blind-testing some younger classmates with FLAC vs. 128/160/192Kbps mp3. Most of them thought FLAC sounded just wrong and picked the mp3 as sounding better every time, since they were used to radio and low quality mp3 from napster, limewire etc instead of actual CDs.
So unless Olegl is someone, who never enjoyed proper CD quality and listens through some 1.5" desktop Logitek speakers, you really can't say he wants to be a member there, because that's where the cool kids are.
I would rather ask idol if he has ruined his ears, because he seems like someone old enough to have enjoyed real CDs
Idol, at this point, shouldn't we support anything Oleg does that will make him "less of a loser"? :idunno:Quote:

It's been awhile since I've seen the film, but I think I remember him winning in the end (just not well-liked).Quote:

Anyway me my point wasn't that downloading FLAC (or HD ) makes you cool ,but rather people think that it does and that is the reason - that and they think that be "being in the club" they will somehow be furthering their bt careers is why a lot ,I would even say the majority, do it.
Really if someone wishes to listen to FLAC or two rocks being banged together under water , I couldn't care less if they are doing it because they truly want to with no ulterior motives.
Or I could be entirely wrong,it's not like it would be the first time.
My humanitarian skills are rusty, but I wonder if this is reminiscent of a feeling of concern/worry (that I am experiencing).Quote:

How old are your mother buddy ?
I willfully download MP3 and SD so that people don't think I think I'm cool.
I know how that feels... :sadwalk:Quote:
