I think it's been said that 128 kbps AAC is better than 128mp3, but sounding better than a 192 kbps mp3 file is technologically impossible.

I just thought Radiohead would give us considerably better than what iTunes puts out.

As long as the uploader hasn't re-encoded it, yes I think that's a phesable option. I would skip lectures tomorrow but it so happens that tomorrow is the busiest day of the week and my absence will most probably be noticed. :angry:

No, I dont think anybody has yet.

I know a fair bit about encoding aswell, and I'm the sort of person who's willing to sacrifice the space on his mp3 player for good quality tracks. Now I do have some songs encoded at 128kbps on my computer which sound fine, but these are not complex tracks and I have a feeling that a Radiohead album will be taking advantage of the stereo channels, and I know as well as losing some of the crispness in sound on the higher end, the quality of the stereo sounds also suffers. Lets hope 160kbps manages to overcome these losses in quality enough for me to enjoy it.

I see... you still think it will be available at midnight tonight?

Thanks for the help, NME is extremely slow at the moment.

I've just sent a complaint to them. See GazeboflossUK's post, I agree that we should all complain.

I agree... I was expecting 192kbps minimum.

People are saying its coming 10am tomorrow UK time, how do they know this when in the email waste just sent me they don't give a specific time?

You mean the WASTE code? Cos i got that one, not sure whether thats the same as a download code though. :\

Haha thanks!

Thanks, guess u'll like this aswell: [ATTACH]24185[/ATTACH] Haha, sorry I was bored :lol:

Truly mouthwatering. Thats the only reason why i didn't order the boxset. The vinyls are useless to me. 27 hours 24 minutes.

I need a tuna melt from Gardino's right now, damn you empty pockets! :angry:

You are all that I neeeeeeeeeeeed... :P 28 hours 10 minutes ;)

41 hours 30 mins

The same happens to me, I'm afraid you'll have to input the names and artists of the tracks yourself for the mean time. Sorry :( I'll have a look around for a solution though, see if I can get back to you on that ;)

Thanks for the info DreamOutLoud ;) January 2008 it is then! :dance: :lol: Yeah I listened to that today aswell, forgot how good it was.

Hope things start to get better for you tracie, its good to see you're still in touch here, it will probably relieve some of your stress. :)

I know, people were going crazy over them but i dont see what the fuss is about. The current nano looks better than this IMO, and i dont see why someone would want to watch videos on such a small screen anyway. But yeah, those Ipod Classics look like a great bargain, as well as being leaps and bounds ahead of this new nano in terms of style (and possibly function).

Have you tried installing / reinstalling DX9? Download here: http://downloads.guru3d.com/download.php?det=1321 Not sure if it would work since i don't have a dx10 card, but probably worth a shot. It is fairly annoying, there is a way to turn it off (but it means you are at a higher risk of infection): http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/disable-user-account-control-uac-the-easy-way-on-windows-vista/ So are u still using Vista, or have u decided to go back to XP? I've heard of this iTunes problem before, but i think it was fixed through an update microsoft released a few months back :confused:. Again you can turn off the UAC popups if u want, see the link above. Either way, sounds like u desperately need to get a mac :P I'm curious to find out what happened that made you uninstall it after only one day :rolleyes:, and being pre-installed, you're bound to get alot of uneeded software anyway, which is always a pain.

Interpol Porcupine Tree Radiohead Coldplay Arcade Fire

:laugh3: I couldn't do it either, i listened to some of their recent live tracks and it looks like this album is gonna be one of their best since OK Computer :D Just my opinion though... and I'm loving Videotape.

This is awesome news. But i'm still trying to decide how much I'm gonna pay for it :\
