Re: copying a c.d

Your ripping from a standard Red Book audio CD, there is no such thing as a
ID tag in the Red Book Standard. The closest thing is a extension to the
standard for CD Text which can't be ripped anyway.

You seem to be extremely paranoid in general about technology, but you don't
seem to understand what's really there.

Of course you haven't had a bad experience, there's no such thing as what
you are talking about.

I can hear a difference between --alt-preset medium and --alt-preset
standard (Those are LAME settings for those who know about audio encoding).
_You_ might not be able to tell, but the "human ear" most definitely can.
If you can data to back up that it can't, please let me. You would be the
first ever to say that the human ear can not disguise the difference in
lossy codec's.

Please don't go off trying to write a program yourself, you need to get an
understanding of what you are trying to do before you even learn how-to
program HELLO WORLD.

What you are doing is the most horrid thing you are do to audio, and your
doing it because you don't understand what your starting with and ending up
with. Please go purchase on anyone of the following subjects and starting
reading so you can get a better understanding of the human ears and sound
processing/compression.

Book subjects:
*Digital Signal Processing
*Psychology of Hearing
*Signals and Perception

or

Start off by reading the following PDF so you can get a better understanding
of Digital Audio Compression and Perception. Then you can move on Analog
vs. Digital.
