Flac Only!! No Shn!!

I'm a big FLAC fan! SHN is out of date. Might as well go back to 8-tracks!! Can we get everyone to use FLAC? It's the way to go. I would love others feedback. staffino

FLAC is better. It is the preferred format right now. If you want to make secure conversions to FLAC check the link in my signature.

Re: Flac Only!! No Shn!!

I think you will have many people agree with you. TTD Staff strongly encourages people to use flac. However, some shows were put on in shn originally and people just don't want to go through the trouble to convert it to flac first before seeding.

I strongly encourage anyone with a new recording to upload to encode to flac.

Hi Five,

you may be able to track it down, see http://web.archive.org/web/*/http://...gthegroove.org
I don't think it's possible to do a textbased search, but you'll probably know where to find it.

Yah, find it man! If it's the one I'm thinking of, I remember reading it one time and it was hysterical.
