There's no need to get upset, now is there?
I just don't agree about practicallity. Did the thought cross your mind that we might just define practicallity different because we think (and work) differently? You see, as I burn to cd, the size is not a problem. If I were to keep the stuff on my PC, it would, and I wouldn't have much of a benefit of FLAC's edge over MP3 either. But as I like to burn to cd's, FLACS are more practical to me, as they help me achieve my goal of good quality bootlegs on cd, where MP3 doesn't do so. Do you see what I'm getting at?
don't patronize me! show me where i got upset - you are the one with the intellignece around here - or maybe not, if you look at how intelligently you
1. follow a discussion (no portable music players anywhere play flacs) and thank flacing hell for that - they'd need to be as big as a fridge - if you want to carry 40/50 cds around with you all the time that's up to you - but portable music is supposed to be portable by nature - hence mp3, wma, ogg etc - and
2. choose your heroes...let's face it you idolize a murdering thug (Che) and always tend to deny the facts (a CIA plot?) what?
yet again you fail to grasp the PRACTICALITIES of the discussion....ipod with 100 queen live concerts on it or discman with 200cds - i know which i'd rather cart around on holiday...
i haven't got upset and i haven't fallen out with you - disagreeing with you does not mean either of the above - it just means I THINK YOU ARE WRONG.
