Hi all, My flatmate and I have decided to MP3 all of our IDM CD's (about 350 CD's, this is going to take a while) to protect against annoyances such as scratches and skips that make CDs unplayable, I want to forever remove the irritation of finding that one of your favourite CD's has a skip just in the middle of the best track. We are using the Lame encoder on alt preset standard, which is slightly below perfect cd quality, but good enough for me. Consequently we have a LOT of mp3s and most programs (read: winamp) don't like to handle this much data, are there any MP3 players that have better support for much larger collections of music? cheers georgewilliamson --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
