Saying goodbye is the only option available. By encoding music in lower bit rates, a lot of stuff required to make it soothing to the ear has been removed from the resultant file. Since missing parts can't be predicted using some formula, one can't recreate original audio signals. Even if some processing is done to remove the tinniness of voice, human brain is sharp enough to detect the differences in the original voice and the processed one. Unlike predictable signals like a sine wave of given amplitude and frequency, music consists of unpredictable signals. To store a predictable signal of infinite duration, one needs negligibly small amount of storage space. But for storing an unpredictable signal of limited duration, one needs comparably larger storage space. Looking at this issue from another angle; if we could re-create the missing parts from a smaller file, then why do we need a larger file in the first place? MP3 itself is a compressed audio format where a lot of undetectable (for human ear) audio signals are removed from the original using some sophisticated filtering. But there are people who can detect the differences between a CD quality audio and its MP3 form. Raghu

Mp3 Sound quality.
by Rony 07 Jun '09

07 Jun '09

Hello, I am trying to download songs from the site below but in many movies the file size is about half MB and the sound has a disturbing metallic sound. Is there any other way to download it or its just jinxed at the server itself. Normally good quality mp3s have 4 to 5 MB sizes but this one is too compressed. Even the file size during download is higher (about 550 Kb) than the one sitting inside the disk after download (86 KB). Any tips or tricks? http://www.bollyfm.net/bollyfm/mid/535/tid/3109/mp3soundtrack.html -- Regards, Rony. GNU/Linux ! No Viruses No Spyware Only Freedom.

[OT] Recommendation for FTP hosting provider in Kurla/Vashi corridor
by Arun Khan 06 Jun '09

06 Jun '09

I am looking for a FTP hosting provider in the Kurla/Vashi corridor. The average upstream (my FTP site to WAN) data transfer is 20 GB/month. The average downstream (WAN to my FTP site) data transfer is 4-5 GB/month. This would be my rough storage requirement as well. Both upload/download speeds should be at least 200 Kilo Bytes per second. The data center (hosting FTP site) should have the service for copying files, delivered to them in a portable hard disk, on to the FTP site. I am not looking for a dedicated FTP box. Shared or VPS FTP hosting is fine if the system can deliver sustained data transfer rate mentioned above. Please let me know of any service provider that you have had experience with for FTP hosting. TIA. -- Arun Khan
