[The Sixth Rat Packer]

So I FINALLY got signed up on Dime today and for some reason nothing will upload to them, despite me uploading here like a champ.

So i'll probably be banned any day now. lol

that's a story for another day though.

So I grabbed the Lovage show from Cambridge MA, and downloaded it.

I converted a copy to mp3 for my Ipod, and then I happened to notice something.

The compression of the flacs were 2.3 to 1 (41%) or thereabouts on all the tracks. The final track "silence" was the only one that was untouched at 1 to 1

That's not right, is it? I'm thinking this was an mp3 file that was converted to flac to post on Dime?

By comparison the mp3 copy I made was 7 to 1 (13%)
