Which is the better argument? I think the Mac vs PC argument is better than the 'Digital vs Analog' argument, for a number of reasons: 1) We've had the 'digital vs analog' argument a number of times on this list, about types of music, types of media, etc. It's pretty old, and annoying to see the same ground retread over and over. The 'mac vs pc' argument comes up less often and is therefore kept fresher. 2) The 'digital vs analog' isn't so political, so it doesn't have as many harsh emotions attached to it. It doesn't get as heated and people are more quick to "agree to disagree." This makes it boring. Oh, and anyone who disagrees with me is a stupid baldy. Yeah, you heard me, bald people! You're stupid! Having hair is so much better than being bald. -Adam. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org

But it is!! HTML mail sucks because: - it takes up extra bandwith - not all mailers support it, or render it in the same way - it allows numerous exploits - some people really manage to create awfull looking emails which make me want to stab out my eyes in horror :) -- "progress doesn't come from early risers progress is made by lazy men looking for easier ways to do things" http://n3wjack.blogspot.com http://www.jungletrain.net - 24/7 dnb radio station --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org

Actually, i think their actions are pretty questionable and sounds like they are just trying to make a buck of someone elses work: http://www.wired.com/news/digiwood/0,1412,63952,00.html -thor --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org

analog vs. digital??? everybody re-focus on objectivity now pleeease :) and read here 1st! you may find out somehting about you here >>> http://www.prorec.com/prorec/articles.nsf/files/D035BAA5D245F6B9862567DF001914F2 .... regardless of the above topic: we don´t really have a "digital" or "analog" problem with our music. the biggest problem is brickwall limiting. 80% of the music that is issued today on CDs has just no depth and imaging. its plastic. that has nothing to do with analog or digital. it has to do with having the balls to make a "not so loud but fat or being a wimp and making a very loud but flat"-recording. robert -- B O B H U M I D @ G R O O V E M A G A Z I N E ( t e c h n o l o g i c a l _ e d i t o r ) servicelinks: http://www.groove.de http://www.coad.to --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org

Spot on link , maybe a bit of digital and analogue , laptop and hardtop , mac and pc and even atari might work ? what works works in relation to what 'we ' think does or doesnt and i think this is definately the ultimate trick studio question . . . . . . try posting on the analogue heaven list for some real classic 'expert ' = 'opinions ' .I like it all . . .
