So what should we do re: the BRT? Keep as is, or use the new links? Kind of seems important that everyone listen to the same show, right?
New links, as they are still better than the show posted here. Not everyone of us has the FLAC-show. And Gerard says he doesn't hear much difference, so I suggest we keep the new files as the standard for the BTR. I didn't remaster it for nothing...
if everyones happy enough with Caspers show then we'l go with that for the BRT but i'd prefer to re-encode the untouched FLAC files and have them added to the bootleg page afterwards. All in agreement?
