Freed At Last From Patents, Does Anyone Still Care About MP3?

Always remember that in some places executive just means the dumbest person in the room and most developers won't lift a finger if it means they get to see the owners embarrassing themselves in public.

Not OP, but I promise you that I can hear what sounds like digital water being thrown over the cymbals when listening to mp3 files below 320 kbps. Even then, every now and then I hear that sound here and there across whatever record I’m listening to.
I don’t experience it when listening to records, CDs, or cassettes.
My hearing used to be very sensitive. When the whole world was using CRTs, I could tell you who had their tv on just standing outside their house.

do you think would influence developers to make their projects open source, with more leaning towards copy left licenses? they won't make much money off the code alone anyways, so might as well try to make others not profit either

If I juat want one song and flac isnt expensive to buy digitally I'll buy it.
But if they want somethibg like 3€ per song I'd bail and pirate it.
Discogs is only if I really want it the CD and it's out of sale. Else it's usually less expensive to buy it from the official store.But if I had to choose between discogs and ebay, I'd prefer discogs due to more information about the release and condition.

The randomizing n my Focus ST is good, but when I tell it to shuffle play it always starts with 1 of 2 different songs, every time.

Sure, but they used AAC to rocket to success, not MP3. In fact, it was annoying back in the day because everything non-apple used MP3.

Youtube Music doesn't just serve the audio from a video.
They do serve the audio from a video if nothing else is available, but they also get releases directly from the publishers/distributors.The difference in sound quality is definetly noticeable.

Exactly, sometimes you just wanna jam to some mp3's out of an iPod like the good ol days. It's about the
vibes

I care, because I e been using streaming media fr quite a few years ears and not kept up with an changes

I used to think this but the convenience won out. Now over holiday break, my teen discovered my crate of CDs that he doesn’t remember seeing in his lifetime!
And now I need to decide whether to buy a CD or DVD player to transfer to a more usable format - the last one I had was an old Xbox that is no longer with us

Could it be the sound system? Most people seem to prefer the convenience of Bluetooth, ubiquitous small speakers, and maybe that’s usually the limiting factor
