During high school and part of college I spent some time listening to the Grateful Dead. I recently read an article about their official live recordings in Stereophile (of all places), and my curiosity was piqued.
It turns out that you can download full-res FLAC files for entire concerts, without DRM, directly from Dead site. The price is about $20, which is the approximately same as the retail price for the CD sets (there are usually three CDs for each concert). Six concerts and 48 hours of downloading later, I'm very happy with the result. The quality is very good, and there is something really cool about downloading a high-quality, fully tagged album directly to your hard drive and playing it on the Squeezebox or Transporter. If only more bands did this... -- gregeas ------------------------------------------------------------------------ gregeas's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=5877 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=32969 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
