Best download sources for Silenzio
Hey everyone, I work in Greenland, where our internet is sloooooooow, expensive, and limited. I'm looking for the best recommendations for HD download sites that are easy to use.
I also pulled all my iPod music over to JRiver, but some of the albums are broken up into songs that won't play without Quicktime or iTunes, and sometimes won't get the cover art. I was wondering if anyone has any tips. Thanks! |
Depending on what format those songs are, you might be able to use JRiver or ITunes to convert them to FLAC, ALAC or even MP3...
As for download sites, I doubt any are easier than another. It’s just internet speed. |
You probably know this already, but depending on which version of JRiver you have, you may be able to import the cover art from the Internet.
Right-click a track of the pertinent album you have loaded in JRiver, select "Cover Art," and if the resulting pop-up provides the option, click "Get from Internet." Doesn't always return an image (or the precise one you're looking for even if it does), but I have about an 80% "hit" rate when I've tried it. Good luck. |
Qobuz just announced they’re now live in Denmark, so since Greenland is part of the Danish Realm, perhaps it’s covered as well.
You may be able to download from Qobuz, even if you don’t have good enough internet to stream. Before my internet got upgraded last year, I was able to download from Qobuz with only a 3mb service, although downloading a hi res album took hours. Option 2 is, if you’re location isn’t classified, you let one of us know what you want and we download and ship you a loaded drive, assuming of course that doesn’t create customs issues. |

Bob, What are the file extensions for the tracks that only play on QuickTime etc?

In general for other extensions, when this happens, most can be resolved with changing "default file associations" in the operating system to invoke your preferred app. Many apps "take over" associations upon the app's install or give the user a vague option to do so and many users unwittingly say yes. |
