yes, the 10 sec flac file you posted would not decode for me [i'm using xACT v1.62 - getting the error "unparseable stream"]...but that issue aside

from what i can see, this **seems** to be an analogue FM recording, which according to our standards here at TTD would be acceptable to torrent...however, we're talking about an artist that uses samples for his beats, which can cause different results compared to a typical recording of acoustic or "traditional" instruments...

but i don't have as much experience when it comes to european FM feeds, so if i were you i would wait to get a more definitive answer from a few of the ABT mods [jameskg, dcbullet, Five] or one of the other resident experts such as ssamadhi

just a fwiw, but we [TTD Staff] don't get paid for this, have busy lives outside of the internet, etc -- so you might want to be a bit more patient when asking for opinions/help, otherwise you come off as an arrogant ass...to properly analyze a SA for lossy/lossless purposes, it helps to be able to see the sample in a few different time lengths, which is why jameskg was asking for a different sample length [and Five would've asked for the same thing ]...again, i just say this as a fwiw, you can say/act however you want really, just don't be surprised if no one helps you

Yup.
I actually might do know why the sound sample I sent you didn't decode/open: possibly because of I closed the upload window before the upload was "ready".

Yup. I do understand the rest of your statements about conduct etc. Never, ever been in this kind of a situation before, though I've been a member of various sites like TTD before. But that discussion don't really belong right here in this forum.

BTW: Why did you pull off Misfits? In just curious. That's all.

Them shortenings once again! What does "fwiw" mean?

Right! For What It's Worth = fwiw. Thanks for Wikipedia

Of course! By your own words: "no source/lineage." OK. Fine.

Yup. That's what I thought... No matter what you said in before hand or whom what so ever...

Thanks for your reply!
