Right.

73:5<somewhat> You haven't done the math right?

Currently i get 80Min CDRs for 0.80 DM (roughly 0.40$) per piece. So i could
record 50MB more. But i have only 1.1 GB for 1.3(2x74Min)-1.4(2x80Min) so
i haven't changed the script. :-)

I know. And i pracitise that more or less often. But for THIS case that
isn't an option.
