  2. May I suggest you bigger scans and smaller files?

  3. Thank you for the share. I agree with the suggestion. Nothing wrong with 320 kbps mp3 files, and portability with unnoticeable quality loss is a huge advantage.

  4. Wonderful. Many thanks!

    FWIW, I disagree about the MP3s. Even at 320 kbps, the quality loss is clearly audible.

    Flacs are a great alternative: lossless, while much smaller than wavs. There are a number of free WAV to FLAC converters, if you're interested.

    Cheers!

  8. Many thanks for the re-up. Sounds like a great band. WAV works fine for me and of course memory is so cheap these days.
