Nile - 2003.02.09 - Philly


all recorded by me... i have other shows ive recorded, but didnt realize i should save the wavs before i turned em into mp3

 

[Chromatose]

you should .shn the .wavs, to compress them and archive them, its the bootleging way.

 

[495]

heh, shns are basically wavs anyway... i burn the wavs to an audio cd and delete em after i convert em to mp3

 

[Chromatose]

yeah, lossless wav compression.

but it saves space for archival purposes

 

[495]

ya... altho i dont archive the wavs, just the mp3s to trap in unsuspecting FTP leech victims mwhaha

 

[Chromatose]

right, thats why i recommended it. you'll never know when they'll come in handy

mp3s wont be good enough when you bargain with Saddam for your right to PAAAARTYYYYYYY

[metalathiest]

haha... Say you burn the WAV files onto CDR, it will thus become a playable CD yes?, but then you could also extract the sound files back to WAV from CDR correct?... or am i missing the whole point of archiving them hehe.. or wait!, is that archiving them as WAV files right there?!...fuck im confused.

From now on, you are making master copies of your boots onto CDR's right?

 

[Chromatose]

I was trying to figure out what he meant he did too. ha ha

 

[neal]

dude you cant tell the difference between a wav and like 192 mp3s so i dunno what the big headache is about. and its live anyway.

[metalathiest]

well there is some frequency issue. WAV files keep it, whereas MP3 files cut off at a certain frequency level. Ohh im far from being an expert in this, but thats what someone told me.

And, who does real trading with mp3 files?. Besides the small difference (if any) of sound quality, it is still not a "true" bootleg. Many traders are picky SOB's, thus they will not trade for mp3 boots since anyone can find them + download them.

 

[495]

what i meant was that i burn the wavs as an audio cd
