hello, Thanks Jim will try ten shows and see what happens. Sounds like that would be about correct though, consider the BPS RATE HE IS WANTING.

But my software did not show me how much I could get on a CD. Your best bet is to try it out and see. In mp3 format with mp3 audio you can get I'm guessing up to at least 10 shows.

As I remember, it's more like 160 kbps for CD quality. My guess is that old radio shows are not nearly CD quality in their original condition, thus my comment about over kill. Also, I wonder if we're getting somewhat far away from the subject of the book port. Forgive me if I'm missing some reference here. I have not read every message in this thread.

All I guess I am trying to figure out, is how many shows I can put on a disc for him. Thanks in advance Bruce.
