Spoon

when i do any ripping it is typically in ogg format. but any songs or samples i download are typically in mp3 format.
so I have both.
hehe WMA has a zero :happy:
I'll be re-ripping my whole collection over to Ogg Vorbis once my iRriver supports it. (If :confused: )
Of course, I'll always have mp3s hiding in some folder on my HDD from some download. If only you could download Ogg Vorbis files :cry:

I rip tons of Ogg Vorbis, download pounds of MP3, and trade a few Shorten.
Shorten is increasingly popular in groups I trade in. I would like Illustrate to release a Shorten codec if it hasn't already (I'll check after this is posted). It would be expecially helpful if there were an easy to use codec that supported Shorten version 3.x (which supports "seek"), along with version 2.3a (last "official" version).

I think Spoon intends to add a Shorten codec sometime in the near future. Keep your eyes peeled
But do you know anything about VVS?Originally Posted by totalXSive
Got a disc and I was trying to convert it to MP3 of some kind but can't find a decoder! the only site which has one won't load the page!!!
Any help gratefully appreciated!

Hi, all I could find out about .vvs is a site called file hungry.com, it has a converter available, but is shareware. You might want to give it a look. At least its a place to start. good luck.
I use 64/44/stereo mp3pro for storage,because that's what I stream in thru Live365. Besides,I have only a 20gb HD ("only" 20gb...two years ago that was Sooooo big).
Love & Peace,Clarence
I use Monkeys audio (for archival purposes on a seperate computer, I tried compared shorten and Monkeys both at max lossless compression and Monkeys came out with smaller file sizes) and MPC for all my other computers and for general listening. I use Vorbis on my iBook because I can't find a player for Mac OS 9 or Mac OS X that will play MPC and vorbis is better than MP3 by a long shot but MPC, IMO, is better than vorbis.
I tend to mix mp3 and Monkeys (as some may remember from this post), as I download mp3 but rip monkeys.
Vorbis all the way...
mp3,most likely. not that i really love it,but it has good enough
quality with certain bitrate,192kb/s for instance. though,if i need to record it without compression (for some reason),i`m just using a wav format. an advantage is that most progs has familiarity with those formats. it could change,but for now...:happy:
I still use MP3, though I would love it if most software/hardware made the switch to OGG. Until that happens, I'll stick with MP3 for a couple of reasons:
-My MP3 player's software doesn't support it (OpenMG)
-You can't download many OGG files from P2P networks
-Getting out all of my CD's and re-ripping them to OGG would be time consuming, and maybe not worth the effort yet (I could transcode, but I don't want to).
That being said, if OGG becomes more standarized, I wouldn't mind the switch.
P2P support for Ogg is increasing - the latest WinMX uses it, and apparently KaZaA also supports it, though I wouldn't know since I'd never let such a scummy piece of software on my hard drive.
In fact, one of the few major programs not to support it is Nero Burning ROM, which is why I'm keen to try dBpowerAMP Audio CD Writer .
Amen to that
