well, i guess the main reason is it sounds good to me, and its universal. i share my music with a lot of friends, as a lot of us are connected to the radio, i used to DJ a lot. mp3s also work with our automation system. i also like to transport my library on a very small USB drive, thats also USB powered. (its a copy of the raid drives) i really believe that most people could not tell the difference between FLAC and my 256kbps mp3s. if i were to setup a double blind test, i bet 95% of the people, or more, would fail it. i am almost certain i would fail it. i am getting more into FLAC, and certainly its everything people say it is, but space, and the ability to play a given file any and everywhere also matter to me.

(you can add an extra lame dialog page to EAC if you put the right DLL in the EAC folder). so all my mp3s are 256kbps CBR. i haven't learned how to do id3v2.3 tags ONLY yet, but after i rip a bunch of CDs, i just use mp3tag to strip the v1.x stuff out. i'll check your link to see if there's a switch for that! -- MrSinatra www.lion-radio.org using: sb2 & sbc (my home) / sbr (parent's home) - sbs 7.5b - win xp pro sp3 ie8 - p4(ht) 3.2ghz / 2gig ram - 1tb wd usb2 raid1 - d-link dir-655 - 40k+ mp3 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ MrSinatra's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2336 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=24054 _______________________________________________ ripping mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/ripping
