    Only thing is Mel speech audio doesn't need to be more then a 64k mp3 it still sounds fine. even 32k can be ok.

    It's just been my experience that compressed audio doesn't really re-compress that well. That's all. :)

    You guys have my respect for a long time now. I wish I could just move there at once.

    Actually, no you didn't.

    Original file size: 290650365 (277.186 MB)
    RAR'ed file size: 286285098 (273.023 MB)

    You saved only 4 MB. Add in the time/effort to extract it, plus the extra space of having it on your computer twice, not worth the archiving. If you had saved 10 MB or more space, then yeah.. But only 4? No. You may look at it as saving 400 MB in bandwidth over 100 downloads, but then you could've reduced the bitrate and achieved even more.

    Just saying.

    Isclay, Team Normandie, thanks for the time and energy and timely links.
    Dave Dobson, Team Arkadia, thanks for the shattering precedents.

    Weird... everyone else seems to have listened to the interview ok, but when I click either of those links I get taken to a Not Found page with a message like this:

    "The requested URL /audio/David_Dobson_03-10-2012.part1.rar was not found on this server."

    Is I n00b?

    Yes he deleted it, because of Rick and I finding that the music was still there.. It will be back from what Ive heard - smaller and without music.. (damn copyright issues :p)
