thanks for sharing this and special thanks for the FLAC format. john coltrane in top form. no doubt one of the best albums of all time ;-)
now, just a suggestion. why an archive? have you realised FLAC is actually an archiver specially made for WAV files? that means trying to compress a FLAC with 7z, RAR or any other generic archiver doesn't accomplish anything. it actually makes the archive bigger than the original files. your archive is 224, the folder with everything uncompressed is 221. not to mention password protected archives are evil.
pray the FSM!
Ramen!

Thanks for the support pastafari,
The reason for the 7z file archive is so that no matter how many times the files are shared the person downloading the tracks will be able to know if any file has been damaged due to data corruption. The 7z app will be able to tell the listener if the any of the files are damaged or not so that the listener can download a new(er) copy or something. Thats my logic around that. I know the 7z file is larger but I figured the benefit (if any) would out way the larger file size.
Yea I know that passwords can be evil and I apologize for including the ".txt" file as an encrypted file. Normally I make it so that people can decrypt the file to get the password for the rest but I forgot. I try to make it very easy to find the password. The password is always flac. I did that so I could help spread the word about FLAC so more people would start encoding in and sharing it. Its the smartest way to share music!
With all that said I will consider just sharing the directory without any passwords for future music in order to reach more listeners.
Thanks,
CDboy

Thanks for this wonderful album.
Thanks for being in flac format. Flac rules.
But please, DO NOT archive it and DO NOT password it. There's no reason why you should do that. I've read your explanation about it, but I can't agree with it. It just makes our lives more difficult.
You see, nowadays any decent torrent client has a hash check option that we can use in order to check every bit of the downloaded data. With that said there's no reason to 7zip it or rar it up. It's just a waste of time.
I have to agree with pastafari. Password protected files are evil.
Anyway, thanks again for the album.

yeah ,also if you zip it none will share it cause they need to unzip it if they want to listen to it and the file you seed is of no use
but anyhow thanks for great seed

thanx but dude wtf with password zip.
cdboy is not a complete noob and so he must have his reasons for hiding torrent contents in a zip and his excusses about it being better simply dont make sense.
he has 3 torrents on tpb and on every one he gets flac (punn intended) in comments which he obviously ignores.
still its a free world and he has not a gun at my head so thanx cdboy but dude i not seed password zipped torrents nor will other experienced dl'ers = which is why your torrents are crawling. everyone loses.
