Does anyone have a reliable source to download V0 MP3 quality music?

I still have my Waffles.fm account (now Waffles.ch), but they're down right now too and haven't said why. I haven't used my Waffles account for nearly 4-5 years probably ever since I got my What.CD account.

Just get spotify, it's only $5 a month.

V0 is just the best variable bit-rate you can get on a mp3 file. 320 is the best constant bit-rate.

Still a two channel audio file, dont see how that comparable to flac and wav (5.1 channel)

I wish I did.

I used to have great sources to all kinds of great torrent sites, including what.cd. However, someone posted a thread on here asking about potentially trading invites. I got involved in the conversation, someone on here actually reported it to the mods at what.cd and passthepopcorn and both of my accounts were immediately deleted.

The reason I tell you this is to be careful posting this stuff in the open forum. Someone on here snitched us out (the other posters involved also lost their accounts). Pretty pathetic, but it happened.

I already know this. My PassThePopcorn got deleted as well years ago. I even went on the IRC channel and talked to one of the admins and admitted to it, but they still wouldn't reinstate it. It doesn't really matter about being careful. I don't have any private accounts anyway to get banned from. I mean, I suppose I still have my Waffles account.

I don't understand your point? Are you saying FLAC and WAV are better quality? Because I don't disagree with you there. It's all about convenience for me and what you're using it for. A quality rip V0 mp3 through my Audio-Technica ATH-50x's through my laptop or phone works just fine for me. It's not like I'm listening to The London Philharmonic Orchestra in a $500 pair of headphones trying to hear ever detail in the music piece uncovered down to the cracking of the fingers as they strum across the strings of a harp.

What kind of a person would go to the mods and rat out posters like that? I especially loved PassThePopcorn and I shared videos as well as downloaded. And this f#ck on ISH -- whoever it was -- completely ruined it.

I really wish I knew who it was, because they'd never post on here again as long as I'm a mod. :mad:

Nothing new. I just never use that power. Almost never. It has been probably 6 months since I last banned someone and they were spamming the board with threads, basically asking to be banned.

Exactly. I was more like asking for your opinion, because i dont think ive downloaded any V0's.

I need flac for my car's speakers. Anything less doesn't sound as crisp and the bass can be too much for my subwoofer.

Probably.

Though, he is one of many writing a book on the Cavs' championship run. Windhorst also has a book coming out, as does lesser known (but better writer) Chris Parker.

I'll probably read all three when I get the time.
