Thanks a lot!!That's fucking awesome!!
Appreciate it!
I just started thinking about collecting losless concerts,and this is the perfect start!

Limulus might be able to back me up on that but actually, since it was aired in 256kbps, there's no need for FLACs. FLACs would have been useful if it had been aired in LPCM audio - which was not the case.
Anyhow, the best quality we will get will be 256kbps.

[timebomb]

 i do not will not listen to mo feedback from no hoarders like linulus says. because he hoarders more gnr than we will ever see only puts out what he wants to put out and hides the best stuff. till it all comes out i wanna hear nothing from him.

[Will]

Well, would you do trust me then?

[timebomb]

yes but i like flac's u maybe right but if u get your info from him i will not

[Will]

I get my info from myself. I just said maybe he will confirm what I'm saying.
Believe me, 256kbps is the best we will get from this show, hence FLACs are not needed - even though the effort is appreciated of course!

[timebomb]

can some one please re upload knohd and my michelle it said it is unavalable anymore

[EFISH]

I just found these and posted them here, and then went to sleep..

I guess I wont download them if Will says it's not lossless though

[timebomb]

it seems this is the best version available, so who cares if it's real lossless or not

[EFISH]

Im leaving for the day... but here are these re-uploaded by him...

This is how I understand it - whatever your source is, if you compress it to mp3 there will be some quality loss.  Why?  Because you are compressing the source file.  Doesn't matter if it's LPCM audio or already mp3 audio.  It isn't smart enough to recognize that.  If you compress it you compress it.

But if there is some way to directly take the 256kbps audio as it was aired and use that, without further compressing that source, then it would be the same quality and it would make a FLAC version redundant.

I tend to agree that the 256kbps aired audio is the best we will probably ever get.  The question is can you take that directly or does it have to be compressed even further into another mp3?  To me, even if it's 256kbps and you compress it to a 256kbps mp3, there will still be quality loss.  Why?  Well because you are compressing it.  You can't compress it.  You need to use a tool that will directly pull the audio from the recording exactly as it is, and maintain the 256kbps rate.

Hope that makes sense.  What do you guys think?  This post is just how I understand it, but I am no expert and I've never really played around with these things.  I am just trying to understand this as well.

[zombux]

that's true Fusion.

[Fusion]

that's true Fusion.

Yeah, it makes sense to me.  That leads to the question about the mp3's we have from this show.  How were they created?  I don't know how to tell.

This is how I understand it - whatever your source is, if you compress it to mp3 there will be some quality loss.? Why?? Because you are compressing the source file.?

+1

Doesn't matter if you compress to 320kbps mp3 - It'll lose quality.

Best is to just rip the audio into FLAC if you want it as lossless as it will ever get.

could someone post these on megaupload please.

When you convert to FLAC, you need to "encode", which means it's gonna be compressed anyway. If you want the real deal, download the DVD and extract the .mpa stream from it.
