Many people say that they can hear the difference between formats, but for myself, I can hear no difference in sound quality at all, & this is my own music that I record, & then convert to a small-size MP3 for SoundCloud.( I listen to both formats & compare ). In MP3 format, at the best quality setting of 320-kbps, can have this size reduced to around 50-Mb’s. Most music that’s say 1-hour long in FLAC format consumes around 150-Mb’s of data. You can in most cases decompress these folders back into FLAC if so desired.Īlso, marketing & Wi-Fi expenses vary greatly from country to country, so that if you were to buy a new release on-line in MP3 format, costs are reduced greatly, & the “product” delivered immediately over the net. Since computers & hard-drives are “marketed & priced” on their available space, the MP3 format offers much reduced disc-space needed via compression. The MP3 format is for most people ( like myself ), is to grab a CD, & then burn-it onto a hard-drive & into a folder that may contain “everything” that you’ve acquired in this format. I simply remember Audacity as it’s simple to use. There are many free recording programs to choose from. Should you use “Audacity”, have the recording “mic-in” setting at about 75%, with the primary computers volume-out at 100%, & you’ll be close to that -6db threshold. Aim for a -6db average floating recording level. Depending on your computers audio-program & year / build, you may have to download a program like “Audacity” to record with, as they shaved the uses right down with “Realtek audio manager” over the years which is typically found on Windows. ( And use its speaker-out for your listening ).

The trick is to have a digital recorder or another computer, & record the tunes whilst you’re listening to them in real time ! Simply hook-up the speaker-out from one computer, whilst recording into the other using the “mic in” input. As others have posted, there are other sites offering these gems for payment… They were listed in the 1975 Guinness Book of World Records as "the globe's loudest band" for a 1972 concert at London's Rainbow Theatre, and have sold over 100 million copies of their albums worldwide.20 Gregster Yes, I’m having trouble too in permanently downloading the offered recordings.

Deep Purple, together with Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath, have been referred to as the "unholy trinity of British hard rock and heavy metal in the early to mid-seventies".

Originally formed as a progressive rock band, the band shifted to a heavier sound in 1970. The band is considered to be among the pioneers of heavy metal and modern hard rock, although their musical approach changed over the years. Deep Purple are an English rock band formed in Hertford in 1968.
