[bookport] Re: a cd against a 1 gb card

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?
