  1. Re:So what? on Ripping from Vinyl, Simplified · · Score: 1

    Actually, 44,100 has everything to do with the frequency of the sound. Do you think that value was chosen at random? Increasing the sampling rate gives (at least) two results: 1) Increasing the maximum reproducible frequency and 2) Increasing resolution. As for 1, consider this: Suppose you want to save some space, and digitize a song at 10 Hz. There is no way that that frequency can reproduce a 400 Hz tone. Get it? Bump bump bump.

  2. Re:I am crushed on Where Indie Artists Get Everything · · Score: 1

    Under Berlin Babylon, you'll find this.

    At the bottom, a guy from the US says he went to E.N.'s website where "Blixa also claims the band wasn't even told about the protection by the label and they didn't know until they saw the finished product. Furthermore, it appears the band will not be applying copy protection to CDs produced in the immediate future."

    I dig E.N. too.

  3. Where can I go to get some Indie Music? on Where Indie Artists Get Everything · · Score: 1

    I support my indie artists.

    Jim Thirlwell (a.k.a. Foetus, Manorexia, Baby Zizanie) has a couple of cd's for sale at foetus.org. Radiolarian Ooze is awesome. Check out his aud/vid link for some samples.

    Another oldie but goodie is Alternative Tentacles where you can find Jello Biafra and lots more.

    Any other good indie stuff for sale out there?
