Weeding: Audio or MP3

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

normally audio cd, obviously, but as i'd only rip a boot to mp3 for listening to on my pc anyway, it doesnt make any real difference to me...

The mp3 vs audio debate was really about how the audio cd's were sourced, meaning if it's an audio cd it's better that it's not mp3 sourced.

However if you're talking a cd full of mp3's (that's around 8 hours and 40 min @ 192kbps on a 700mb cd), then I prefer that. Audio cd's take up too much space - and I think those who actually have every gig as audio cd will know this! I don't, although I've been transferring some of my cassettes to mp3 cd, but keep getting sidetracked and never have the time to finish.

If we are talking weeding only , then i guess CDR is best but for the reason that if you want to trade in the future you are going to run in to problems if you are trying to use MP3 sourced gigs.However for listening at home i always use my MP3 walkman and have 100 or so gigs in mp3,so have no problem with that.

Didnt we have this MP3 argument a few months ago............. :innocent:

not bothered as long as it's good quality
