All tracks in the tunes page are now played using the new flash player!
So as requested by nearly every producer on the site the tracks are not directly downloadable anymore
I'm going to put an option in so producers can allow tracks to be downloaded on a per track basis, but that's for the future.
For now enjoy the instant playback

The player uses low bitrate files yes. But I am using low bitrate VBR (variable bitrate) now instead of fixed 96kbps CBR (constant bitrate) because the quality is much much better.
I did a lot of testing and comparing of sound quality vs file size, and ended up using: LAME -V 7 --vbr-new --resample 44100
The bitrate depends on the quality of the original. It is encoded using VBR to preserve the quality as best as possible. The files end up somewhere between 70kbps and 120kbps.
BTW I checked some of the 70kbps files and the quality was still OK. The latest versions of LAME are amazing, never thought that <128kbps could sound like this

That is a possibility yes, but it will be for later, when I make the mydnbbe user preferences page

I guess only Peahead can read this quote, so I quoted it for nothing. There is nothing.

I think they stay on the server, just in a unaccessible folder.
