<<Who is he kidding when he says (and I quote),
"Based on our listening tests, we found that a
128-Kbps MP3 clip (sampled at 44.1 kHz)is almost
impossible to distinguish from the music on CD." .
Might be true if you are using a pair of $10 2 Watt
desktop PC speakers but surely he can't be serious !!!
Sorry Michael J. Miller, Editor-In-Chief PC Magazine,
your credibility has taken a large dent, as far as I'm
concerned.>>
Yeah, I noticed that too. But never having listened
to an MP3, I didn't feel qualified to comment on that.
Interesting, though, that he suggested using MD to
store MP3s. (I wonder where I've heard that before).
Still, it's good to see MD mentioned.
Also, I noticed that CDNow is offering minidiscs. Not
much selection, though, and the price is almost $2.00
more than the equivalent CD. Who is going to buy the
MD version and pay almost $2.00 more? For that price,
you can buy the CD, copy it to a blank MD and have two
copies of the recording.
