Sound much better to me than 192 mp3 could ever dream to. Cymbals aren't underwater, and the bass isn't in the sedimentary mud. For my recent endeavor to import, I narrowed it down to 192 vbr m4a, and on the train, they sound great. When I go and get back from an 800 mile road trip next weekend, I'll let you know how they fare in the truck, In the house, well, moving the server and the playstation into another room is the only valid solution to eradicate some serious whitenoise issues. Thanks for the walmart album art script... you saved me from buying a scanner! I was up 'til 'bout 0dark30 pulling down pics for the ipod. -d--- 128 m4a files are what the iTunes store sells.

It's funny on it's own, but the inside joke was good. The “spaz” reference at the end made me laugh. It’s funny on it’s own, but the inside joke was good.

Surprisingly I can hear no real difference. I had always assumed 128 would be evil since in mp3s format the cymbals start to get "washy" and the bass doesn't thump like it should but I've gotta say that this is not the case with m4a.

So keep throwing em up there to remind us to "back up". oh and on a past note...I saw a video for that band morningwood you talked about. what is the music world coming to? might as well listen to donna summer or some other crap from the 70's. who promotes this crap. IF you don't throw that #¤%#in' cd out the window of your NFS EVO while your crossing the brigde to work then I'm gonna send a virus known to the world as bigbanana@savingyourears.com to eradicate your so-called jazz section. well boy when you have a kid these 13 paragraph essays about fear and loathing in PC land (that could have been shortened or forgotten all together if you just backed up your shit in the first place…anti-nerd) are gonna be a thing of the past.
