Re: Packing mp3-s

However, don't expect much, if anything at all, in the realm of shrinking file size. Yes, ZIP does compress, but MP3's are already compressed, so the ZIP algorithm doesn't do much, if anything, to improve on the compression you already got by creating the MP3 in the first place. In fact, it's quite common for the ZIP file to actually be bigger than the MP3 it contains! Don't let that worry you, though, it's perfectly normal.

Re: Article: Publishers Phase Out Piracy Protection on AudioBooks
I just read this article! This sounds very good! - Original Message - From: Steve Pattison [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Access-L [EMAIL PROTECTED]; PC-Audio pc-audio@pc-audio.org Sent: Sunday, May 25, 2008 8:36 AM Subject: Fwd: Article: Publishers Phase Out Piracy Protection on AudioBooks From: K4NKZ Jim To: Lost In The Stacks Publishers Phase Out Piracy Protection on Audio Books By BRAD STONE Reprinted from the New York Times Originally published: March 3, 2008 SAN FRANCISCO - Some of the largest book publishers in the world are stripping away the anticopying software on digital downloads of audio books. The trend will allow consumers who download audio books to freely transfer these digital files between devices like their computers, iPods and cellphones - and conceivably share them with others. Dropping copying restrictions could also allow a variety of online retailers to start to sell audio book downloads. The publishers hope this openness could spark renewed growth in the audio book business, which generated $923 million in sales last year, according to the Audio Publishers Association. Random House was the first to announce it was backing away from D.R.M., or digital rights management software, the protective wrapping placed around digital files to make them difficult to copy. In a letter sent to its industry partners last month, Random House, the world's largest publisher, announced it would offer all of its audio books as unprotected MP3 files beginning this month, unless retail partners or authors specified otherwise. Penguin Group, the second-largest publisher in the United States behind Random House, now appears set to follow suit. Dick Heffernan, publisher of Penguin Audio, said the company would make all of its audio book titles available for download in the MP3 format on eMusic, the Web's second-largest digital music service after iTunes. Penguin was initially going to join the eMusic service last fall, when it introduced its audio books download store. But it backed off when executives at Pearson, the London-based media company that owns Penguin, became concerned that such a move could fuel piracy. Mr. Heffernan said the company changed its mind partly after watching the major music labels, like Warner Brothers and Sony BMG, abandon D.R.M. on the digital music they sell on Amazon.com. I'm looking at this as a test, he said. But I do believe the audio book market without D.R.M. is going to be the future. Other major book publishers seem to agree. Chris Lynch, executive vice president and publisher of Simon Schuster Audio, said the company would make 150 titles available for download in an unprotected digital format in the next couple of months. An executive at HarperCollins said the publisher was watching these developments closely but was not yet ready to end D.R.M. If the major book publishers follow music labels in abandoning copyright protections, it could alter the balance of power in the rapidly growing world of digital media downloads. Currently there is only one significant provider of digital audio books: Audible, a company in Seattle that was bought by Amazon for $300 million in January. Audible provides Apple with the audio books on the iTunes store. Apple's popular iPod plays only audio books that are in Audible's format or unprotected formats like MP3. Book publishers do not want to make the same error originally made by the music labels and limit consumers to a single online store to buy digital files that will play on the iPod. Doing so would give that single store owner - Apple - too much influence. Turning to the unprotected MP3 format, says Madeline McIntosh, a senior vice president at the Random House Audio Group, will enable a number of online retailers to begin selling audio books that will work on all digital devices. Some bookstores are already showing interest. The Borders Group, based in Ann Arbor, Mich., introduced an online audio book store in November using D.R.M. provided by Microsoft. Its books cannot be played on the iPod, a distinction that turns off many customers. But Pam Promer, audio book buyer for Borders, said the company welcomed moves by the publishers and planned to begin selling MP3 downloads by early spring. A spokesman for Barnes Noble said the retailer had no plans to enter the audio book market at this time. Publishers, like the music labels and movie studios, stuck to D.R.M. out of fear that pirated copies would diminish revenue. Random House tested the justification for this fear when it introduced the D.R.M.-less concept with eMusic last fall. It encoded those audio books with a digital watermark and monitored online file sharing networks, only to find that pirated copies of its audio books had been made from physical CDs or D.R.M.-encoded digital downloads whose anticopying protections were overridden.

Also it says to auto tag many tracks at once use the send to option and choose auto tagger, but that option isn't there. Is there a way to tag several tracks at once? First things first. Know ye at the outset that the autotagger is not perfect, nor does it purport to be. There have been many occasions where I've had a 50's track come up analyzed as being by the Rolling Stoens! Impossible! The interesting thing about your problem is that the default in Winamp is to tag a file with all three kinds of tags--ID3 V1 and 2, and APF2. You can check to see if all three of these tag types are enabled for your file by opening the tag editor window (Alt+3), shift-TAB back to the row of tabs and pressing right-arrow until you hear ID3V1, ID3V2 or APF2. The first field in each one of these tabs is a checkbox that should be checked. This determines whether the associated tag type will appear in the file. After you make sure all three of these are checked, press ENTER. To tag many files at once, load them via the playlist editor (Alt+E), select everything, then right-click on any entry in the list. Select Send To from the drop-down menu, then right-arrow to that menu and go up three times to Send to autotagger. You'll then get a dialog with appropriate action buttons, plus a list of the same songs in the playlist that you can examine individually and check/uncheck individually as well to determine whether Winamp has gotten valid information to put into your files' tags. Notice that the screen is divided into two halves, before the file lookup, and after. You can examine this information with a mouse-movable cursor (JAWSCursor or W.E. mouse cursor) to determine the accuracy of the data found, then decide whether to apply the change to that file by leaving it checked (the default condition and action), or press the space bar to uncheck that file and have it passed over when you press the update button later on. A note here that may confuse you a bit, that being that if the filename is too long, you won't hear the status of the checkbox and may have to rely on the graphic number as spoken by JAWS to determine if the item is checked or unchecked. Your mileage may vary, but on my system, graphic 642 means checked, graphic 40 means un. There are also Check All and Uncheck All buttons at the bottom of the dialog. One caution: Do not check files whose both artist and publisher fields are empty. If you do, it crashes the autotagger and Winamp and you lose any unmade changes after that entry.

Re: need help with rar files.
Winrar will let you play them without making separate files. It just extracts them straight to your mp3 player which plays them. But it is not necessary to do 2 separate operations unless you're trying to burn them to a separate cd or something like that. - Original Message - From: John Schwery [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: PC Audio Discussion List pc-audio@pc-audio.org Sent: Wednesday, May 28, 2008 7:56 AM Subject: Re: need help with rar files.

Winamp help please!
Can anyone tell me what setting I need to change in Winamp so the program will stop trying to do a Winamp update.

Sounds to me like your podcast file was a very high bit rate, because the higher the bit rate, the lower the compression.
