Secondly size is an issue. There’s over 40Gb of material on the site at the moment, if it were all MP3 that would be more like 400Gb! The audio available is not meant to provide CD quality recordings as a substitute for buying vinyl or licenced MP3s. Q. I’m not degrading myself by using Reaplayer so there A. Furry muff.
