  1. From BJ. Yep agree about that, general old age for me, but my diabetes is causing me probs right now - have a second eye welfare check next week because the normal one couldn't see behind my cataracts which are not getting better. i had my eyes done July as my diabetes left me unable to see my computer or the 50" TV or drive at all . For 1300 quid i had both lenses replaced and since bought a 75" TV and passed my driving test here in Thailand enabling me to see my computer screen, Watch TV, ride my bike and drive my truck again. My friend who runs pubs in the UK has also had the surgery and has his eyesight back so i would recommend it to anyone suffering from this problem to go see about it.

  3. Can't remember that, but the memory is one of the first things to go Back in the day, in the usenet sounds.mp3 groups in the mid to late 90s - 128kb/s was considered absolute luxury!! There was no Broadband (at least not in the UK) With the speakers that we used then it was next to impossible to hear whether a CD had been ripped at a higher rate that 128kb/sec, and for mono tracks ie. most 50s and 60s music it was general to rip at 64kb/sec mono. It was only at the beginning of this century that 192kb/sec started appearing regularly. When I rip nowadays I rip at 320kb/sec - but that's only to keep downloaders happy; on my computer's "Creative" I can't hear a difference. A helluva lotta karaoke discs until recently were mono as well Must agree, I do prefer Zoom and it's my go to, but he is careless with his lyrics missing "Any way the wind goes" from the end of Bohemian rhapsody was carelessness of the highest order - and they have a large number of other lyric errors, like most companies they get Roger Miller's "King of the Road" line "Short but too big or round" (ie they've been stepped on) substituting 'around' rather than 'or round' Yep agree about that, general old age for me, but my diabetes is causing me probs right now - have a second eye welfare check next week because the normal one couldn't see behind my cataracts which are not getting better. So, your other two eyes are OK then ?? <GBFG> AGREED !!!!

  4. By "The group" I mean that I don't feel like I am doing all of this "collecting" alone. I feel I gotta have them all, but when I share files with the group, I want them to be labeled perfectly and with good working files. Don't want to be sharing crap files. I believe we all like being able to get rare, hard to find songs, even if we may have to relabel or redu the music track. I have been collecting these since I switched from hard disc to mp3+g in 2004. I appreciate all that "the group" does, and Leenew, you are and integral part of making me want to be better. It is great that we can share this music and that we try to help each other. Keep up the good work, everyone.
