Legend: The Best Of Bob Marley & The Wailers [FLAC]

Extracted using Exact Audio Copy. Reggae is one of those few genres (besides Classical) that is unbearable in anything less than 320kbps, in my opinion. Properly tagged, EAC log file included. Track Listing: 1: Is This Love (3:50) 2: No Woman No Cry [live] (7:08) 3: Could You Be Loved (3:57) 4: Three Little Birds (3:00) 5: Buffalo Soldier (4:18) 6: Get Up Stand Up (3:17) 7: Stir It Up (5:30) 8: Easy Skanking [bonus track] (2:57) 9: One Love/People Get Ready (2:52) 10: I Shot the Sheriff (4:40) 11: Waiting in Vain (4:16) 12: Redemption Song (3:48) 13: Satisfy My Soul (4:31) 14: Exodus (7:40) 15: Jamming (3:31) 16: Punky Reggae Party [bonus track] (6:52)

Well sir your opinion is flawed.
Take a good read about abx, I say for sertain that YOU CANT hear the difference between the original and a well encoded -V 2 encode with lame (even -V 5)

take a read and do a REAL blind listeningtest.
Anyways, thanks for the flac

K.
I guess you proved you shouldn't be downloading this in FLAC then. Go download the 192kbps-encoded mp3 Legend albums, there's like 30 of them here.

Most people would probably not hear the difference but some of us do. I have a quite expensive set-up and hearing the difference of a V2 and a lossless encode is very much possible. However, much less so if you listen in your iPod earphones or even music of a certain genre.
All in all a lossless encode will always be the best alternative as audiophiles can listen to the audio the way it's supposed to be, while home users can just re-encode to whatever bitrate they want.

Thanks! :)

"most of us do"
Yes, you "think" you do. Have you ever done a real abx test to prove that you actually can hear the difference? Im not talking about a blindfolded test, i mean a _REAL ABX_ :) Read link above plz about what an abx test is. Show me a real abx log and i believe you. Expensive set-up doesnt make it easier to hear the difference, thats the funny part.

I do thankyou for flac, because flac is awesome! Now I can convert it to aoTuV ogg @ 128.
Im not trying to destroy your ego's guys, even if thats what abx-test tends to do sometimes, hehe Im just trying to open your ears/eyes.
All in all, i really recomend you to read more on www.hydrogenaudio.org. A very good place for audiophiles.
good read:

@budsson
You're flawed in seeing the ups of FLAC files over shit mp3s.
One example is that I can now take these full quality files and re-encode copies of them to any format I want at any Bitrate I want in the future. And I can do it all without losing a crap load of quality from the original sound, as is what would happen if these were Mp3s.
Some people plan to do more with there music, and some people enjoy their music much more than you must, if all you want is some crappy mp3s.

Haha! Did you even read my last post??

Why do you think i downloaded this in the first place? :)

nice one. bob is definitely FLACworthy. 192kbps just doesn't cut it anymore

PlayaPlaya19 (2008-12-08)

Thanks for this! And just to add my opinion, I've been 'LISTENING' to MP3's since Napster and there absolutely a DISTINCT difference between FLAC files and 128. NO DIS, I'm just sayin'... 320 is the only way I'll listen to MP3's now. 192 is the lowest I'll go if I HAVE too. I love getting the FLAC files so that I can convert to 320 for myself.
