Mmm, interesting.
I can probably install the download manager in a VM to avoid screwing up
my actual PC. Hopefully once I have the files I can then get rid of the
VM. (I'm only planning on ever doing this once.)
320 kbit/sec is the maximum bitrate that the MP3 standard supports,
AFAIK. Frankly, at that rate, you'd be hard-pressed to tell the
difference between fully uncompressed audio.
Once I get the files, I can decode them back into PCM, put them on a CD
and pretend that this whole sorry episode never happened. ;-)
(Since Amazone are giving me the credit for free, I thought I'd go
download the album I *thought* I was buying the first time around...)
