I've been offline for a few days, reinstalling my system, and now we're re-doing our mp3 server ...
hope to be back online soon, i need my fix.
....
and a couple things I want to mention, may be helpful -
1. cd ripping - check the Computer Forum, lots of good rec's in there.
(rather, 4 progs that get mentioned more than any others -
easy cd-da (not! free)
Exact Audio Copy
CDex
iTunes
any one should do fine.
bitrate - there's a reason why 192 is 'standard'. if you rip your own, no reason to go less.
sharing quality is better than quantity imo.
verification - I will love you if your albums verify. (freedb/sfv).
albums, albums, albums! - this is the beauty of slsk.
sure, people can d/l tracks if that's all they need ... but if all a person shares is tracks ... *grumble*.
anyways ... I love that we have a slsk thread, even just seeing other people's files is cool, a bit voyeuristic or so ...
