Default High Definition Music downloads-Chesky

What is High-Definition Music?

Our high-definition music sounds more realistic and offers greater sonic detail than most commonly available online music. All of our audio formats sound substantially better than standard 128 kbps MP3 files.


We offer the following file types:

AIFF: CD-quality uncompressed music files offering seamless integration with iTunes.

FLAC: CD-quality "lossless" compressed music files that sound as good as AIFFs, but can be downloaded faster; compatible with Media Monkey, VLC, Songbird, Mac Flac, Toast, and Winamp, but not compatible with iTunes or iPod.

320 kbps MP3: Small, compressed music files offering the fastest download times and universal compatibility with all MP3 players.

96/24 FLAC: DVD-audio quality music files for the discerning audiophile -- a truly high-definition listening experience.

This is a nice idea but.............

After scrolling through almost 60 pages of artists I could only find a handful of DL's that I would be interested in.

I mean who needs George Burns in flac?

I did DL 3 titles......

Laura Nyro - Live From Mountain Stage
Bobby Darin - Aces Back To Back
The Siegel-Schwall Band - The Reunion Concert

The Laura Nyro & The Siegel-Scwall titles sound great.
The Bobby Darin - Like dog crap (and it sounded OK when I played the samples)

So that's my experience. Hopefully they will get some more artists and try to keep the crappy sounding stuff off of there.
