The Big Year – Theodore Shapiro (iTunes)

iTunes AAC/M4A (~256k)

As of right now, I believe the iTunes "Partial Album" is the only available version. If someone knows of another version with other tracks, please let me know.
I used an app called ‘Tag Stripper’ to remove the personal info. Tag Stripper merely removed info from the existing files; it did not copy or degrade the audio.

MP3 (iTunes conversion at highest quality settings: ~320k)

I’m on a Mac. Neither XLD nor xACT seemed to want to convert M4A to MP3. If someone knows a better, simple way to convert iTunes-only releases to MP3 on a Mac, I’m all ears.
I did listen to some of the converted tracks, couldn’t hear the difference, they sound great.

I’m paying for bandwidth, so please do me a favor and download one or the other, not both.
