Can you possibly explain a couple of things? First why is it sometimes I have experience a song recorded at 128 kb will sound better than a song recorded at 320 kb? I downloaded the same song one time one being recorded at 128 kb, and the other recorded at 320 kb thinking that the 320 kb would be the better of the two. What factors make a great sounding mp3. mp3s can differ depending on how they were recorded, software, the speed and amount of power on the computer recording, the source material, the sampling rate, the use of error correction etc. Also do you much about ogg? Does ogg have different kb like mp3? ogg is just another format. The general rule of thumb is an ogg recorded at the same bitrate has better sound then an mp3. A good sounding ogg will be half the size as a good sounding mp3. More songs for your collection You do have different kb or bitrate but if you use a ripper like cdex, it will show you the ogg bitrate as a percentage rather then a kb value. With that particular ripping software there is little difference between a high and low percentages. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Bill" <bill.cam@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thursday, January 20, 2005 8:59 AM Subject: Re: jaws and cd burning > both nero and e z cd allow for perfect copies of data cd roms, providing > no > copy protection is used. > wanted to clear up my earlier info about audio disk, pointing out their > differant when copying them as opposed to data disk. > > both nero and e z cd make this a snap to do. > > bill > > -- > To post a message to the list, send it to jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > To unsubscribe from this mailing list, send a message to > jfw-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the word unsubscribe in the subject line. > Archives located at: //www.freelists.org/archives/jfw > > If you have any concerns about the list, post received from the list, or > the way the list is being run, do not post them to the list.
