I'm too proud to listen to mp3 but too lazy to find FLAC music, and so I ended up being a youtube paesant.
where does /g/ find FLAC music?
>>55600863
torrent websites, but usually they're converted mp3's, so you gotta be vigilant. CD rips are a good start.
also mp3 320 and mp3 450 are not so bad.
Type this: "song you want" lossless

This senpai. Most flac on torrent sites are YouTube to mp3 converted to flac
>>55600876
>but usually they're converted mp3
What.CD retards
>>55600897
yes, because an invite only closed site is going to help the newcomers.
bandcamp is good too.

What he said.
You can purchase digital wav files from some places and convert, but your best bet for free lossless is to find good torrents, or subscribe to Tidal
>FLAC
All my music comes in WAV or TAK. Because the Chinese are fucking crazy.
i convert mp3 128kbps to flac
>tfw you don't even have the equipment to properly gain something from flac
Then again I don't really care. I listen to vinyl recordings with audible scratching noises and don't really care.

Wav is extemely inefficient with memory. But I guess if you like 3 minutes worth of audio taking up 100Mb then that's all you baby

rutracker.org
>>55600906
it takes 20 minutes to learn then you just wait for the interview
>>55600920
TAK is awesome
>>55600906
What.cd has an IRC interview that is easy to pass if you just learn how to analyze audio quality from spectrals. Shouldn't be hard if you're /g/ inclined.
>>55600863
Nowhere, I hardly listen to anything these days. New music is mostly crap, and I am tired of old stuff.
I mostly listen to rock and metal, its enough listen to a song once maybe twice.
I am not even going into electroshit and po(o)p
>>55600936
So do I. But that's because I'm into armature stuff and HD for those are still surprisingly scarce.

The only FLACs I've found are on torrent sites, but really MP3s converted from YouTube in 320kbps aren't that bad.

Why tidal? Deezer is much better
>>55600863
You can convert to Flac and back to mp3 in realtime with modern CPUs. Just download mp3s and save your hdd space.
>>55601004
Wherever, really. I couldn't remember the name of the one I trialed, so I just Googled and picked one that sounded familiar
Just re-encode your own.
>>55601001
Why would you convert Youtube to MP3?
>>55601057
When you can't find a torrent of a song you're looking for
>>55601050
The fuck are those sweeps about? Do they use fingerprinting or something?
>>55601073
look it up in the archive
>>55601073
less comprehensive programs read it as a full quality track. reals.

Just download the AAC, moron.

FLAC is good but mp3 320kpbs is usually what I listen too. Best filesize/sound ratio. Anything under that is pretty shit
>>55600897
Last time I tried I had to wait for almost 10 hours
>>55601032
I mean, I don't want to go into full aspie mode.
But shouldn't he be keeping his hands away from the headphones?
They look like an open design so wouldn't it make sense to avoid any resistance with his hands on the grill?
Like, I know it probably makes a shit of difference, but these are supposed to be the holy grail of audio right?
So it'd make sense to try to have every part you can control to be as optimal as possible.
I find most stuff on TPB, KAT and en.metal-tracker.com.
I guess what.cd is good place, never bothered to join as once I've waited for an hour to start an interview, and still I wasn't at top of the queue.
And you have huge collection on chiru.no/dl. They have huge collection of jap music. From non-Anime music they have some classical stuff like Bach and Slayer.
I used to torrent flacs years back, and burn cds, but now just paid streaming service. If I reallly like a new release, I buy the cd.
And it's surprising how many good cds you can find at flea markets and 2nd stores if you're familiar with vintage, or even only a year or two old.
I only ever downloaded one flac album that when burned to a cd, had less than perfect quality. The diff between a cd burned from flac or 320kb mp3 is obvious on a good stereo. And the waveform of a flac from mp3 conversion will confirm it.
>>55602637
i agree
>>55601032
WHY IS THERE NO DUST COVER ON THAT TURNTABLE??!!!??

>when you realize you wasted thousands of dollars on a scam

i think ponomusic sells flac files
I buy the CD and rip it.

it takes 2 hours max to get into what.cd, just do your research and do the interview, boom done.
