2. Removing the music from a music web site would be a step in the wrong direction I feel so that’s out of the question, it being the reason for the site in the first place.
I would argue with your estimation that a poor or average quality mp3 comes in around 500mb!? Even if you’ve added an extra 0 by mistake there it seems very excessive. A modest length track (3-4mins) using variable bit rate would be 5-10mb I would guess and the ones provided were less than that. Given that I think that MP3s were the biggest step backward in sound reproduction quality since the onset of CDs I can’t say I listen to a great many but what I do listen too are through a Naim amp into admittedly aging Leak speakers and I have to say I’ve heard a lot worse, though this sort of stuff is all top and bottom with scant regard to the midrange. I’m not one to judge as regards this sort of music as I would normally leave the room when exposed to it but as its provided for me to insert on the site I can’t mess with it, (nor am I paid to do so even if I was qualified and equiped).
And yes, an on/off switch is on my ‘to do’ list. If only for my own use.
cheers, Derek
