Yeah, and it's brilliantly intelligent people like you who are helping the lossy files circulate, because you don't know the difference between good and bad quality.

This is very true. But still, this version should be taken down, and shared as the 2-SVCD set it originally was. Passing this off as a DVD is like painting a silver necklace gold, and saying it's a gold necklace.

First, please learn to speak English. I had to read that one word at a time to confirm that it was actually some form of English.
Second, if we're going to improve the quality standards at this forum (and the reputation of Queen collectors in the wider collecting world), then we need people like 928 to speak up. I'm sure he's a very nice person. He has just established himself here as being the litmus test for what is lossless and what is not. Thanks for once again being the voice of reason, even if you're still the voice that few of us want to hear. Keep it up, man!

A great Queen collector, fuckwit.

The bickering and bashing up here by the same 'great' few that uphold all that is sacred and others is ridiculous. You guys take yourselves and this whole 'thing' way too freaking seriously. It's not the end of the world, people. Why don't you focus your energy on petitioning Brian May and Queen Productions on getting them to start releasing real material that most Queen fans want??? That sounds more worthwhile than the FLAC/lossy debate and crap like that. Just because stuff that isn't FLAC is out there doesn't mean that FLAC will disappear like the polar ice caps! Again, it all comes down to this: IF YOU DON'T WANT IT, DON'T DOWNLOAD IT!!!
As i posted before, I had some trouble with my torrent-programm. So i made a new torrent and it should work now!
SirGH and 928 have many valid points. I just dont see why all you others dont seem to understand it too. Its quite simple really, but instead of learning i guess its easier to respond by using harsh words.....oh my
All Hail the Bitchy Bitter Bastards. A shame I don't care about videos too much otherwise, I might download it.
There are 5 things that should never be done in Queenzone.
1. Ungratefulness for someone sharing something that does not meet their holiness standards.
2. Threatening to take ones toys back into the pram, if someone converts flac to mp3 and shares it.
3. Insulting someone's intelligence for sharing flac.
4. Share porn
5. Death threats by know it all teenagers.

Because instead of making salient points and educating people considerately, they have to be pricks about it. When points are make this way, it exposes them for the bloated, self-important jackasses they are, and they deserve all that they get. And oh yeah, Mr. High and Mighty 928 - DVD is a format, not a compression ratio. So maybe you should learn something before putting your ignorance on public display.
If you have a better copy, post it. Otherwise, shut the fuck up.

this place is becoming worse and worse every day. 8(
Of course, we need a discussion ´bout quality.. Of course ppl should be educated in this.. Of course its not happening without mentioning.. But do we need whats going on at the moment..?
I mean, some sure instinct would have been appropriate. :-/
Do we have a sticky topic regarding quality standards and what´s best to be delivered with an announce..? - No.
Do we have a sticky topic with an instruction to the various formats..? - No.
Do we even have a serious discussion topic that´s on the first few pages and containing an exchange of views on how we gonna solve this deadlocked situation (without insulting each other!)..? - Don´t think so.
So what do we have atm instead..? - Lot´s of posts to announces telling the ppl how dumb and incompetent they are, without giving them a good option to improve their knowledge.
We won´t make any progress if this isn´t becoming somehow organized and more civilized soon.
And I´m only talking about the announce/sharing section now. The other parts of QZ are close to be doomed imho... lol
My two cents..

Indeed.

As someone who really can't be arsed wth all the mud-slinging that goes on here, my tuppence worth on this is that I'm with the lossless community. That said, however, what I'm sure most people were taking exception to was the "PRATT" comment to the original poster.
A simple, "thanks for taking the time, but you really should have left them as they were because......" would have been fine.
Again, I'm very much in favour of the lossless argument. There's no debate as far as I'm concerned.
Manners (and patience), however, are something that seem to be checked in at the door when signing into the forums here. Shame, as it really does drag down the site/forum down and makes it a chose to read at times when it should be the reverse.
Ah, well....back to lurking.

As i said before, i don't have anything against "valid points" to see that i made a mistake in making this DVD out of the mpeg-files.
I'm no big expert in making DVD's. I only thought that the mpegs will be converted in DVD-format and i couldn't see any loss at the first look so i did go on making the DVD-files.
So your points about making a mistake are welcome. But when the first response to my announce not only shows valid points but also shouting swear words - that doesn't help anybody. Only made me feel angry and sad about "modern standards" how people talk to someone they don't even know!
And in my opinion it is simply useless to back up your point of view by slaging someone off!

"Do we have a sticky topic regarding quality standards and what´s best to be delivered with an announce..? - No.

We do not have such sticky topics because the website owner does not require any standard formats by people who share material. It was never stated by Richard that only certain formats are allowed to be shared, it's not website policy.
Btw, in the hub there are no such requirements, either. You can share any format and it has never been a problem. You want flac - share flac. You want mp3 - just share mp3. Mobile phone movies, wmas and wmvs - even flv files are shared. I don't remember a single incident of people yelling at each other because of some shared formats in the hub. It's just the QZ forums where such yelling happens periodically. Apparently, some people cannot handle an environment where not every breath you take is regulated by rules with mods in place to enforce these rules. Yes, we could have a sticky topic with recommendations about formats explaining "upfaking" of files but it would only lead to more yelling and people demanding that files should be deleted from the forum. The sticky topics are made to help people and not to moderate them.

Simple rules:
1) Respect people who don't have the knowlegde which you own. Everybody has to learn his whole life.
2) If you don't like what has been shared, don't download it and make a DVD yourself!!
