mp3 or not - Dont you hear it?
Rated • 136 reviews • music • mp3ornot.com
Easy to tell; I happened to listen to the 320kb/s one first and knew before I listened to the other one that it was high quality. Then again, I have studio monitors in here.
Incidentally, for those of you who seem confused in your comments... both these files are MP3. One is the standard 128kb/s bitrate that comprises most music people download on the internet. The other is the much better 320kb/s bitrate. It's not perfect... no mp3 is... but it sounded quite nice. I suspect that I wouldn't be able to tell it from a native, uncompressed WAV file.
If you're interested in lossless audio, you might look into the FLAC format (free lossless audio compression). Files are bigger but they do not suffer the loss of quality that mp3s do. I was contemplating offering some of my new music for fans to download in this format... I wonder if anyone would be interested?
