Queen music download : Announce: Queen + PR Brixton Academy 28 march 2005

Wow - it's impossible to download all these shows - thanks very much:)

Cool Beans, thanks

What is it that you dislike so much about flac files? I guess you're begging a bit too much my friend :)
Don't you know that no MP3 torrents are allowed on Queenzone? So if you want to get ahold of this show, you'll have to download the flac version :)
By the way, if you can't play flac files and that's your problem, then simply search google for "flac front end" and you'll find a nice program called flac front end who converts flac to wave and has also winamp plugins - sp you'll be able to listen to flac audio files in winamp. No need for MP3s :)

Here is a very short descrpition on how to get torrent files downloading in less than 5 minutes.

1. go to http://azureus.sourceforge.net/ and download the latest version of this very userfriendly torrent client. Install the program.


2. Just left-click on a torrent link (e.g. Queen + Paul Rodgers Brixton 28 march 2005.torrent 29 KB) and a window will open asking you with which program to open that kind of file. Brose and click on Azureus that you have intalled. Click ok. The download will start automaticall. IT'S VERY EASY AND TAKES ONLY A FEW MINUTES. !!!

Bittorrent is piss easy to use and works well... only if you have a decent internet connection / speed!

Its hard to say how long it will take cause that depends on how many people are seeding (providing the files) and how many people are leeching (downloading from the seeders) and your bandwidth connection. Maybe someone with more knowledge than me will correct any mistakes I have made in this info.

I sent you an email bout an hour ago.

thank you very very very much!

Seems to be 65 leechers but no seeders at the moment.

EDITED:

thanks man.. I will promise to disappear.. I mean Seed as soon as I finish getting it..

THanks again.

Ahh.. ok.. I didn't know that if in Super Seeder mode that they might not show.. I did wonder why we were getting higher in percentage while NO ONE appeared to be seeding.. I am using Azureus so I am still learning things about it.. I will correct my post right away,

I myself am GLAD its in flac.. no loss in quality coming from a FRESH source.. I am sure it will make its way to the MP3 rings soon enough.. but I would prefer Flac or wav to MP3 anyday..

just get yourself Winamp, and then download the flac plugin.. its EASY

thanks :)

what a pain in the arse FLAC is, no difference in quality (yes I said that) file sizes ten times bigger, all day downloads and the second I get it, I'll convert it to mp3!
Ah well, better than nothing.

cheers for adding this, downloading now its taking hours and its only on 56.6%

thanks a lot!

Everybody: already downloaded it?, well, keep the window open, thats the way to do it and we all are going to have it... i know there will be more concerts and if i download it first, ill keep my window open so you can download it too.

: )

Ahh. finished.. I will continue to seed for a while.. grab while you can.. this is a GREAT concert. thanks

I look forward to it.. Thanks.

Great, Fantastic, Brill sound, a must for anybody who was there, Thank you so much for this.

"Connection Timed Out"

Any reason? Or just not enough seeds?

It's a legitimate question that hasn't been addressed recently in this forum. I'll give you my thoughts, for what they're worth.

First of all, let's examine the mp3 format. Mp3 is known as a "lossy" format because, in order to keep the file size down, some information (samples) is deleted from the source file when it is converted to mp3. Those samples are now lost forever. The first time this happens, you might not hear a difference in sound. However, let's suppose you download a concert in mp3 format and then you burn it on an audio disc. Later on, someone wants to trade or you want to upload the show. In order to do this, you rip the disc and encode it as a set of mp3 files. When this new set of mp3s is created additional samples are deleted. You still might not hear a loss of quality at this point, but what if each person who receives that show does the same thing? After many generations, what would the show sound like as additional samples are lost in each generation? There would come a time where the show would start to sound like those crappy samples you can hear on Amazon. So, the worst thing you can do if you want to build a collection of shows to trade is to burn CDs and then rip to mp3 in order to copy them.

On the other hand, if all you want to do is have the shows, and you will never become a trader, then mp3 will probably work for you.

For people who want to collect shows with the purpose of trading them, lossless formats such as FLACed wav files are essential. Wav files are not missing samples, and that's why they're so much larger. FLAC is simply a way to compress ("zip") them to about half their original size to make it easier to download them. Thus, when you get these files, you know that you have all the available data, and you have the best possible copy. If you then use a good extraction program and extract from disc to wav in order to make copies, you should be able to make an exact duplicate of the show. This is very important over many generations of copies, because there should be no difference from one generation to the next.

I hope this helps.

I've started using Azureus to download the torrents, and I'm hoping to download my first one using a super class high-speed connection from my work system, but my Azureus has a red face next to the donwload and says "not conneccted to any peer while downloading".

Is this to do with the fault Richard stated above, or is it due to possible Firewalls on my work system...?

Could somebody encode it to mp3 and post on rapidshare or something like that ? I got to wait weeks to download flac version :/
If you encode with best encoder - LAME with preset --alt-preset standard quality is very good - you cant hear difference from flac :P
For deatils : http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=28124

www.uploadhut.com is very good as well

James, this site further explains the difference between MP3 and Flac (or in this site's case - wave)

Hope this further helps you.

Hi,

Sorry to be a real pain. But would it be possible if someone would create an audio CD for me ? Off course I am going to pay you for it or replace CD's. No problem.

I can't download MP3's or access Bittorrent due to alsorts of firewall issue.

If someone could help me that would be great, I have other Queen concerts to trade if required.

Thanks !

Please email: ebaylexie@hotmail.com

Then don't downtalk all audience recordings as not being even close to soundboard quality.

Zeppelin fan or not, the quality of the June 21st '77 audience recording from Los Angeles will blow you away (provided that you have the best version).

Thanks to those who are seeding - much appreciated

Finished Downloading and I am now listening to a very good recording of the show. Thanks to whoever recorded it and to whoever uploaded the files!!

Is anyone seeding this concert?

I dont seem to be getting anythyng

You can choose to make a (comparatively) crappy mp3 from flac, but you can't choose to make an mp3 into a (better) wav, flac or whatever.

That is why flac should be used wherever possible.

I downloaded the torrent
but when I came to decoding to wav to put
onto a cd it couldnt decode

Disc 2 Track 1
Cant Get Enough Of Your Love

anyone else have this problem.?????

can someone please re encode and put on the torrent site

cheers and thanks in advance
Villafan

depends on the setings you have on your client.

it was probably set up to seed for a predetermined amount of time and when it ran out it stoped.

can you re-start it for a moment so I can finish?

thanks in advance.

I'm listening to this now, and I would like to give my complements to the audience at this show.

You guys realy made it ROCK, great singing on Break Free.
