Warp records launched www.bleep.com offering APS encoded Lame mp3 files straight from the masters. They are talking about doing 24-bit soon too. You can get stuff that was only out on 12" before. 1/2 of all $$ goes to the artist.

No iPod needed!

Uhm, dumb question. What's "APS" encoded?

And I am glad to see at least SOME more money going to the artist rather than the record labels. I'm sure in this case (as opposed to, say Sony or other labels) the artists appreciate it.

Me.

Oops, sorry. APS is Lame's VBR preset "-alt--preset standard". There is also APX (extreme) and API (insane).

Oh! Gotcha. Was worried it was some type of copyright layer they were trying to fit onto MP3s..

Thanks for the info.

Hmm, so I check them out, some look normal, some don't. Normal like site written funny. Check out Nine Inch Nails, or Wagon Christ. Doesn't appear to be anything up, it links to an Aphex Twin compilation that you can only get 2 songs from.

Me = confused.
