Maybe it has to do with the speed of disk access and the amount of ram. For me, I use the demo of goldwave pretty much as a sound converter to convert in batch long 2-3 hour shows I record with Replay AV from ASF to wave files. Then, I open each one up and use autoqueue to split them into hourly chunks so winamp's sqr crossfader bugs don't exhibit as I fast-forward commercials with my Firefly remote. I can convert and split a show in probably 5 minutes or so, maybe less. If I converted to the same bitrate mp3 that the stream came down as, I'd lose quality but it is talk radio I record, and wouldn't have expected it to sound as good as it does coming from the stream of an AM station.
