What is the sound quality of these
radio shows? What bitrate are they stored?
Despite inferior sound recording quality
of the time period these shows were recorded, all the shows' sound quality is
relatively good -- at least better than an audio cassette, but slightly inferior
to audio CD quality. Although MP3 bitrates vary from series to series, but most
radio shows are stored at around 32kps 22hz to 48kps.
On Macintosh, these filenames are
not showing up correctly?!
You need a program to decipher the
Joliet file name of the show on Macintosh. There is a free system extension
available that enhances the way your Macintosh computer can read CD-ROM's.
Without this extension file names appear to be crippled (in the so-called 8.3
format). If you'd like to use this, the Joliet extension is designed to solve
these problems and is available from
www.tempel.org/joliet/.
Without the joilet extension, the filenames will display abbreviated which will
make it harder to decipher the episode titles, but your Macintosh should be able
to read and play the CD and MP3 files just fine.
