Yeah, that's why I'm not pissed about bitrate. Hell, I wouldn't give a damn if it was 64 and in Mono because in 2 months time I can rip it in FLAC and listen to it in all it's uncompressed glory. It's not like it was recorded and mastered to 128. I still would have preordered without the stream, too.
And yeah, I'd be pissed if they did a NIN free release and it was only available in 128 or 160, but that's not the deal here. The stream is just a teaser.

Um no no no no. The whole point of the stream is to give you a look-see into what you will eventually own come June 6. If it's 128, fine, because, guess what, it isn't the true product, and never was intended to be, and if you expect that, then you are wildly misinformed. |

What's next? Are you going to tell me you feel ripped off or let down because "Shaking Hell" was mastered and mixed from a cassette source?

I'd like to see the look on Hevusa's face listening to Guided By Voices or Sebadoh.

I'd like to see the look on his face when he gets banned because people are reporting him for being rude to everyone for no reason.

you guys are totally missing the point.
This is a "streaming preview" of the album. A TOTALLY different thing form a downloadable version. It's like "here, have a taste. Be prepared to hear lots of subtle things and better sounds when you get the actual thing". It's not like "here, have a lame digital copy". Needless to say, this preview should be "just" for those who ordered copies of the actual thing, so what's the point in complaining about the quality of something you'll get in all its glory on the actual release date (which, incidentally ![]() You guys are getting too used to get the pappa pronta.

I don't think anyone missed the point. Except the guy who made this thread.
In all seriousness, what a stupid thing to bitch about. |

the fuck, I'm too slow to type when I have a smile on my face.
great morning. adam, it's not always stupid to bitch about something (like, if I paid for a digital copy aaand the digital copy is of lame quality, then bitching would be sensed, but it's not the case).

I kinda understand Hevusa's point, tho he expressed it kind of aggressively.
This streaming thing is not quite a good thing in my opinion. For two months people will be stuck with this shity copy. They will accomodate with it and have no interest in the proper version when they will get it. (next time there will be zero interest for the actual copy, since the last one gathers dust on some shelve) Labels will also sense that (already did) and will have more interest in shity streams than actual copies, since is cheaper and they will make more money. |

Low is low on any system, and analog is not the same thing with 128 Kbps mp3

I know this might seem bizarre in this day and age, but not everyone has a T3 connection. Also, in the interest of bandwidth (which costs them money!), it totally makes sense to have it ripped in 128... it still sounds FINE (remember a time when 128 was considered "cd quality"? Then it was 192. Now, 320 isn't even considered "cd quality" by most people!), they don't have to use as much bandwidth since the files are smaller, and people who are on slower connections can stream the songs at a decent speeds.
Makes perfect sense to me. |

... and Sebadoh doesn't record their albums in mp3 and then press them on vinyl.

yeah, i know and understand perfectly your point (not so much time ago my max. download speed was 4-7 Kbps). I just think that this streaming thing is pointless untill the standard will become at least equal with the proper release format. |
