OK, so you have decided that radio chatter is the border for where YOU wont
buy the music. However, such files is STILL potentially "threatening" to
music sales as some people will maybe be put off buying the CD when hearing
the files, even with chatter.

For other people, the border is elsewhere. For me, I would not pay for 128
kbps MP3s but it isnt normally regarded as "fair use" or in any way OK to
post 128 kbps files on the web.

I would not normally pay for 192 kbps files either, so now I will post all
of Yello's available albums in 192 kbps quality in some websites. Give me a
couple of days and it's done, I will let you know the links here and in
other groups. I would never pay for 192 kbps MP3s so it's no problem!

===========================

It's not about what you or I think. It's about what the "masses" think is reasonable. They have shown us with out a doubt that the files that iTunes and Amazon

deliver are worth spending their money on. Would they spend money for a song that was incomplete? A song that had parts of it ruined by voice overs? It's pretty safe to say

"No they wouldn't". Why would they? I wouldn't and it's clear you wouldn't. You wouldn't even buy complete songs off of iTunes or Amazon.

The majority of people nowadays listen to their music on their phones, their ipods, their car stereos, their computers. These are all places where pristine audio quality is

not necessary. But it is necessary that the song is complete.
