New Room 34 songs featuring 2600 (and Synthcart)

[spongebue]

I have itunes anyways, I'm just putting in a vote for everyone else and helping others download and donate.

 

Anyways, I'm listening to Limitations of the System right now (the song, that is) and it is great. The higher pitched melody has a great carefree "floating" sound to it, which I love.

Thank Paul Slocum for that... it's the Synthcart!

If you have the w32codec pack installed then you can use Mplayer to play those AACs. The only ones you'll run into trouble with are the ones with DRM on them. I was able to play them no problem.

Worked on the first try here. I'm using WinXP... Winamp5, full install.

 

I really like "Saturday Morning".

If MP3 offends your ears, encode to OGG instead. It's open-source, better quality than MP3 and AAC at equivalent bitrates, and is supported by all the major media players.

 

Yeah, I don't understand why Vorbis is so ignored. It seems like the current trend is toward WMA. What is it about free and superior that turns people off?

not people... Record companies...

 

 

when is the last open source mp3 hardware that has been released as a freeare shematic?

 

Most of the hardware mp3 companies are arms of the same corperations that own the records companies, so of course they will push drm equipped hardware

 

this is probaly why its taken sony so lon to come out with their ipod knockoff

 

that and their love affair with atrac
