I agree. I think "multi-part files" are a pain in the ass.
One advantage of using multi-part files is that you can sample the music
for quality without having to download the whole song file. I
occasionally check the binary music newsgroups mainly for acoustical
music or unusual recordings that you don't find everywhere.
Whatever floats.

I mostly d/l music I want. I have three different cast versions of La
Traviata, for example, all "MP4" quality, and I got them in about 15
minutes from the same site. One of the Russian sites I frequent has a huge
backlist of "classicial" CDs, and another is up to date on popular music.
I also get music from the Rapidshare servers. It's all top-drawer sound
quality, no muss, no fuss.


mp3sparks.com? What's the other one?




Is that a working email you show here?

Never heard of mp3sparks before, looks interesting for a 102kbps site,
though its prices are a bit high. Did see an old Richter piano
performance from 1951 right on the front page of the classical page,
though, which impressed me. He did a performance of Pictures at an
Exhibition in Moscow many years ago that to this day is the best ever
recorded, audience coughs and all.
