The Eye of the Typhoon PC/NeoGeo MVS prototype soundtrack RiP [MP3 – 128 kbps]
Do you know why? I’ll tell you. 128 kilobits per second, is, to be as polite as possible, absolutely awful quality! No offence. But, really, we’re in 2011. Why people STILL use the ABSOLUTELY low quality 128 kbps MP3s really confuses me. At least 256 kbps or even 320 kbps would be acceptable.
I know you mean well, and all, and simply wanted to share a soundtrack with the rest of the forum members, but really, to actually enjoy the soundtrack, I’d strongly recommend 256 kbps MP3s or greater, because generally 128 kbps is really low quality. I actually read on Wikipedia (inb4wikipediacanbeeditedandthereforeitisunreliabl e) that MPEG (Moving Pictures Experts Group) themselves actually recommend a bitrate of no less than 160, according to the "MPEG-1, Audio Layer III" (i.e. MP3) standards, or something.
This post will probably sound a little (maybe more than a little) rude, but really, people need to stop living in the 90s, as it’s not such a new place you’d like to be.
If it’s possible, you could upload the soundtrack at 256 kbps or 320 kbps — of course whatever you do, don’t make the not exactly common, yet uncommon mistake of converting a 128 kbps to 320 kbps (or even 128 kbps MP3 to FLAC <_<).
