Technical stuff

Several people - here and elsewhere - have given their views on the subject of the format of uploads - lossy or lossless -, the bitrate and other technical issues. I have decided to upload recordings in lossless format (flac) if possible.
I will also post files which I have downloaded years ago from various sources - among them usenet newsgroups - and in those cases I obviously am subject to the quality of the original download. I also have some old stuff which I have burnt on CD; in those cases I can't retrieve the original bitrate. Some recordings are even analogue.
In any case I'll try to give as much technical information as possible. In the end downloaders have to decide for themselves whether the technical quality is good enough for them.
Anyway, I hope you enjoy some of the stuff I am going to post.
