• Welcome to The Cave of Dragonflies forums, where the smallest bugs live alongside the strongest dragons.

    Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.

    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

    They only suck now because Tuomas is producing all of their music.

    Abortion

    You guys all sound like you're in favor of conditional abortions only. (Not ultraviolet.)

    No, use VBR if you want to save space.

    320 is overkill. All CBR is overkill.

    192 kb/s is pretty good, because most people can't actually hear the parts that are cut off with that encoding. If you really want to save space, though, VBR is much better - V2 if you're aiming for a 192 kb/s average - as CBR is pretty outdated and takes up a significantly larger amount of space.

    It really depends on how you ripped it, with what codec and program, and if the CD you ripped it from is the original. I'd imagine that any streaming site wouldn't dare go above 128kb/s, which is pretty shitty all around.

    Could be, but to say there's no audible difference is ridiculous.

    Doesn't being a dictator require a moderate degree of intelligence?

    If you can't tell the difference, there must be something wrong with your hearing. It's pretty noticeable.

    Streaming quality is always infinitely worse than CD rips, even for lossy formats like mp3 and ogg. Another suggestion: mp3_share. Just join (you'll need to make an LJ account if you don't have one), check the tags to see if someone uploaded what you want, and if they didn't, post a request and...

    None of my favorite bands release anything in the States, anyway. Importing is so expensive that I can only afford to get my absolute favorite releases.

    This hasn't received nearly enough exposure to make an impact of any sort. Not that I'm hoping it would, but you know.

    Abortion

    I would agree with your post, ultraviolet, but it has always bugged me slightly when people say "it's a last resort." I'm of the opinion that anyone who wants an abortion can get one whenever they want, and to say "it's a last resort" makes it sound like you think there should only be...

    (This is assuming your artist of choice is releasing albums on an RIAA label.) In scenario A, you are giving the artist a laughably small amount of money - most sources point to less than a cent per CD. That's not enough for anybody to live off of and is more of an insult than anything else...

    Not buying an album is more supportive of an artist, in my opinion. ;) But I don't want to turn this into an argument unless you want to. :P

    Mandragora Scream - Dark Lantern Awesome in addition to being completely fucked-up.

    Are you implying someone who chooses to support artists directly instead of give money to people who think they can take ownership over other peoples' art lacks morals? Aaah, but I'm just being an ass. Go for Amazon, if you must.
