NLOTH in 320kbps sounds suprisingly better

Which is the better one??? I don't even know what "V0" means!

As far as I know, 320kbps is slightly better.

FWIW, the stream at U2.com is 256 kbps MP3.

The files can be saved using Replay Media Catcher and I'm sure a number of other programs.

Thanx for the tip!

So when's LINEAR going to leak?

Torrents usually have the name of the person(s) who releases/uploads them. In this case somebody or some people who call themslelves V0 have released this version of the album.

Holy shit, the 320 really does sound better...and I've only listened to the first track. The percussion was so much clear and everything was separated out so much better. Awesome.

Significantly better in this case!

Indeed--it almost feels like a new listening experience.

If anyone wants to toss me the 320 version, cheers.

Which version of the 320 rip do you have? The sharego or NTL one?

 

[bonocomet]

Ok I went to that zona site and I couldn't find it. If anyone is still emailing the 320...

NTL; you?

 

[Rob33]

Could someone please send me 320 version?

junnydog3@aol.com

Let me know if you think either is better quality. I have both but can't really tell the difference-- its small enough that it could just be my head telling me that its better.

and here please?

No. V0 refers to the encoding. V0 is the best variable bit rate encoding method.

It's basically 320kbps variable instead of 320kbs fixed. So a V0 file will be smaller than a 320kbps fixed file but should have nearly identical sound quality. I highly doubt anyone could tell the difference.

I don't have sharego, but NTL sounds amazing compared to the original 256 kbps leak. From what others in this thread have also said, it looks like NTL is the way to go. It probably doesn't really matter unless you have audiophile speakers/headphones. Not too big of deal at this point anyway since the CD will be here shortly.

 

[Gee40]

someone send it to me too please ...thanks, geechristian24@yahoo.com

 

[ninja starfish]

If someone could send me the 320kb version that would be amazing! I'm loving the album, but defiantly feel like the original leak wasn't the best audi quality...

thanks!!!

I'm a begging bowl. Got passed over somehow earlier in the thread. Puh-leez?

 

[Tripoli]

Woah, I got the V0 ones from the atease forum - It makes the rockier tracks like Breathe & Stand up sound a little clearer... And it makes "Being Born" sound even better - Bono's shouts seem to have more layers to them than I hear on the original rip...

By the way, Being Born is creeping it's way to the top of my list... it's such a trip of a song...

yeah being born was the only one i liked from the first listen but the rest is growing on me somewhat

I'd like a link for this too, thank you.

Wow this 320kbps sounds really great, but I doubt it'll make a big difference.

I'll wait until this baby arrives in the mail!
