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.

Hello Otto:
 
I attempted to figure it out. 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.

Hi,

Right on this not being directly related, felt I could maybe get an answer
as to how many shows I could put on a cd, but this if my final message on
this one.
Thanks.

Otto, 192 kbps is somewhat above CD quality. 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.

Hello,

Probably, but he wants a decent quality.
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.

I know I probably should be just answering the question instead of
questioning the logic, but with OTR, isn't 192-bit overkill?
