Why is there a jellyfish in your thread title?

I used to be on oink back in the day. I don't really feel the need to be on those exclusive torrent sites anymore. I have no problem finding whatever music I want elsewhere.

are they rare, and do you physically have them? or do you have 10000+ downloaded songs.

also to the OP, it's a shame you just missed a neutral leach, you could have gotten a lot of music to start off without a ratio hit.

Yeah 90 percent is downloaded but 256 or higher and a small collection of lossless. I do buy a few physical copies a month, always CD though.

aside from your lossless collection, I don't think anything will help you out. Even then you better be super careful the lossless is good. Basically the only good things to have are CDs that you can rip yourself to ensure they are up to standards.

I would give you an invite but apparently I have none ATM

FLAC is the highest quality of audio files. V0 has the best quality / file size ratio.

what is considered "rare" music? I probably sound like an idiot but how can music be "rare"?

But were they ripped error free? Do you have the logs?

Yeah, that's how anal What.cd is about music. There are actually log checkers, its insane

not rare=albums released by major labels. Can find it on any torrent site
slightly more rare=unsigned indy type stuff. Things you couldn't find at HMV, but could find pretty easily at a record shop.
super rare=not yet released albums, old limited edition type stuff, stuff only released on vinyl a long time ago and good quality live recordings.

I only use what.cd for stuff that I can't find elsewhere, or I can't find it at high enough quality. Back in the Oink days you also used it when you wanted something super fast, but those days are gone now, even public sites give you fast enough downloads.
