Pink Floyd - The Dark Side of the Moon SACD - FLAC

Thought by many to be the best album of all time, The Dark Side of the Moon by Pink Flyod (or jokingly referred to as "Stink Floyd" by my friends) transcends time. I've felt that the SACD edition of this has needed a good and proper upload in the beloved FLAC format. On this version, you'll likely hear things you missed on the CD (or even vinyl) version. It's an amazing disc. I've decided to upload it like this because no one really has any DTS compatible devices, so for the sake of everyone (minus the FLAC ignorant,) you'll get this equally speaker filling version. I will seed this puppy to my max at around 200kb/s tops. Once/if this torrent takes off, I shall drop it a bit for my sake. If you'd like to convert this, I recommend FLAC Frontend: http://flac.sourceforge.net/download.html The program shall convert the files to WAV. From there, use whatever media player you please. I personally keep my files at a nice 256kbps VBR AAC format. 1 Speak to Me 2 Breathe 3 On the Run 4 Time 5 The Great Gig in the Sky 6 Money 7 Us and Them 8 Any Colour You Like 9 Brain Damage 10 Eclipse For every person that doesn't seed, one angel shall contract hepatitis. Every person that does seed will receive a liberal amount of hugs. ~VIVA PIRACY!

I'd like to apologize to everyone for my difficulty with the seeding. It seems to only want to upload at 40kb/s. Leave it on for a day and seed and all shall be fine.

Again, sorry.

...about this beeing a SACD rip.. Is The SACD version remastered or something?
Just wondering..
Since there is no way to read or burn a SACD in a dvd/cd-recorder.. This is just an ordinary CD-rip. The SACD has several layers in it, one for CD, one for SACD 2.0, and one for multichannel SACD tracks..
so, this is just a 16-bit 44.1kHz CD rip... but a different mastering?
The original mastering on the CD version suffered due to a quick and sloppy manner in which they did it. This version, in mine and reviewer's ears is superior.
So to answer your question: Yes. It's a remaster, but 48khz. As far as numbers go, it's not a big difference. It's the remastered SACD edition of the audio I'm trying to torrent.

What he is saying is that you cannot capture an SACD compatible file, as in, there are no SACD drives?

Not yet as far as I know. SACDs haven't exactly taken off.

buddy its 248 MB even if you took the CD layer and did a FLAC version with no compression it would be bigger than this. An sacd uncompressed will run over 1 GB get a grip this is shite!
