Listen to Album A's songs added to "Best Ones" and rate 5 stars to the ones I'm definitely keeping - tag and keep that shit in a separate folder Decide which songs from Album A are the best ones - not too picky yet, just getting the boring ones out Let's suppose Album A, B and C are in my backlog.
Not the quoted anon, but I'll describe the way I do: just wait until i get my FLAC vinyl rip blog up and running! i'm only 34 but just as bitter and scornful as someone twice my age. It's pathetic how nowadays people have allowed themselves to compromise quality over convenience and cost. it absolutely cracks me up when people think their crappy OEM soundcard, crappy best buy cables, and crappy desktop speakers are suitable benchmarks for judging sound quality. I'm an arrogant, elitist, analog snob with 2 vintage hifi systems (1 solid state/1 tube based) that can expose every imperfection in an mp3 file. anybody who knows how data is written to a disc would know that bits do get lost over time. i notice an unusually large amount of "pops" in a lot of songs and a 128k rip sounds more flat than a new 128k rip (both sound terrible regardless). when i've gone back to some really old mp3's from way back 'in-the-day' (90's, Napster, 56k modem) most of my mp3 library sounds like crap, mostly due to the technologies available at the time. Seriously, stick to FLAC, you may not be able to hear the difference now, but in a year or two, you’ll be glad you did.Īctually, the man knows what he's talking about, albeit, petty or nonsense to most people. FLAC rips from the same period still sound great, even if they weren’t stored correctly, in a cool, dry place. Some of those albums have degraded down to 32 or even 16kbps. The bass is terrible, the midrange…well don’t get me started. I started collecting MP3s in about 2001, and if I try to play any of the tracks I downloaded back then, even the stuff I grabbed at 320kbps, they just sound like crap. You don’t want to know how much worse it is on CD-ROM or other optical media. What this means is that for each year the MP3 sits on your hard drive, it will lose roughly 12kbps, assuming you have SATA – it’s about 15kbps on IDE, but only 7kbps on SCSI, due to rotational velocidensity. FLAC uses lossless compression, while MP3 is ‘lossy’. However, hearing the difference now isn’t the reason to encode to FLAC. When you create the mp3, it is literally identical to FLAC sound quality wise.
