like mp3. AC3 is even worse. But where do we stop? Mostly you find that
everyone is very serious about our aims on the hub and that is first and
foremost to archive. Secondly make available the archive.
It's almost like a library concept but in a library you will also find
tabloid newspapers - in my estimation fairly valueless but to some folks
there is value and it that is democracy in action. Therefore hence my
succinctness.

Subject: [SurroundSound] Re: non- surround on the HUB
Generally I would say NO to mp3, BUT there are exceptions to even this rule.
In my share I have 3 mp3 albums by an obscure group, because I am searching
for better than CD versions of these albums and the mp3s are there as
examples for Hubbers to understand/experience what I'm searching for.
However I must agree with you that, generally, it can be very annoying when
searching the Hub to have mp3s listed in the results.
Other Stero files like excellent Vinyl rips and the stereo rips of SACDs are
very welcome IMHO as they qualify as Hi-Res.
Personally I prefer a good (Stereo) vinyl rip of any album over the same
album as a surround DTS-CD! The latter might be surround the the sound
quality of DTS-CD generally sucks. They are surround mp3 in my book!
