Radio ready mp3's
Ok mp3's aren't for everybody! But if your running a community or narrowcast service mp3's may well be the ticket, lets face it with the 15Khz peak on FM radio sound quality your not really losing much with mp3 compression. If your currently using mp3's you'll know what a pain it is to encode from CD's and just how much time it takes. Then theres the issue of copyright which a bit of a grey area when it comes to ripping tunes from CD for broadcast. You can select from COUNTRY, DANCE or POP formats. Each CD contains more than 100 tracks which would take you hours to find and download from the internet, even if most of them were available for free.
