Post by robbietrumpet » Sun Sep 23, 2007 6:04 pm

hi,i recently noticed that the taxi web hosting streams/plays our tunes at 128kbps at high quality and low at 48kbps.i know i upload my tunes at 192kbps. (by their instructions) i would rather use 320kbps. my question:what bit rate do the screeners listen to our tunes at?I've noticed a huge difference in sound quality between 128kbps and 192kbps. hee hee, i need all the help i can get...... robbie >=iii=()

When you upload to the site, a 128k is created for hifi, and a lower quality for lofi. H
