Did anyone else noticed that quality of mp3 concrts that are shared lately dropped down. I personally don't have anything against mp3 format but for god's sake, don't encode songs in anything below 120 kbps.

did it not occur to you that the people sharing the gigs may have actually 'acquired' them in low format?
It's their (uploaders) right to encode it in the bitrate they want it to, so... :( IMHO

Yes... We all know those flac concerts taped thirty years ago in the toilet of a pub with $50 worth of equipment are really spectacular... ;)

The sharp snapping sound of Freddie's leg injury in Hanover during the Works tour sounds exquisitely clear and exhilating in FLAC, but sounds like crap in mp3. LOL
Oh wait that's right, both the FLAC and mp3 versions Of Hanover are worthless, because they both sound like crap.

Strange, I remember lots of people had been requesting it for months although everyone knew it was poor quality. They were crazy about this show because it was considered one of the 'rarest' Works shows and of course because of Freddie's accident. Now it's called worthless....

Many people wanted it only because it is rare. It still sounds like crap. Many people who downloaded it were unhappy with the poor sound. Anyone want my latest used condom? It's rare - one of a kind. I'll fish it out of the trash and sell it to the highest bidder.
I seem to remember lots of people wanting Slane Castle 86 because of a fight. Having a sick fascination with fights or leg injuries does not make a concert worthwhile in FLAC or mp3 if the sound is horrible.
The silent Buffalo video is worthless too. Gasp blasphemy.
If it is not listenable or watchable it is worthless IMHO.

*picks up Linda's eyes*
I have no problem with mp3. But haven't we had enough of these topics? :P

you don't like the quality. don't download it. simple as that. if you complain otherwise about quality your a selfish ungrateful git!! :P :P
*rolls eyes* *rolls eyes so much that they fall out*
ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, my eyes!!!!!! :P [/QUOTE]
I avoided downloading Buffalo and Hanover because of their poor quality.
My point is that a few people say that mp3 in any quality is shit, but claim that FLAC Hanover in piss-poor quality is the greatest thing since sliced bread.

Caspar - you have made YOUR POINT!!! a thousand fucking times!!!
it's all irrelevant...because
1. if someone records it to mp3 - then that's all there is
2. regardless of whatever format it's uploaded in it's there and we should all be grateful
3. if it was recorded 30 yrs ago on a cheap woolworth's cassette recorder then the only 'loss' you're likely to get by encoding in mp3 is a bit of high-end tape hiss - i'll fucking cope 'somehow' without that, if it's all the same
4. we know your opinion, if you don't want it at mp3 then ignore it....moaning about it being lossy mp3 won't magically transform it to FLAC
5. the vast majority of this board will be happy to accept whatever is uploaded - even if it came direct from a fucking crystal set radio using a dansette recorder with mic attached
