Anyone can rip streaming music from the net, using Total Recorder.

Re: how does mercuryserver rip the Kiss100 shows

i wondered about that too, cause the sets have such good audio quality anyway, thanks for hosting them :RockOn:

Quality of the rips will depend on the stream that is provided by the site, 32, 128 or maybe 160 if you're lucky. No internet radio station that i know of will give you the quality of DAB.

Re: how does mercuryserver rip the Kiss100 shows

i usually record it straight to my HDD from the DAB reciever, i use a the timer in Wavelab if i am out, and i encode it to 192kbps mp3 using Lame 3.96.

Re: how does mercuryserver rip the Kiss100 shows

@ chemicalbeavis so that means u also got the shows as highqualtiy wavefiles?

Re: how does mercuryserver rip the Kiss100 shows

So the DAB "reciever" receives the stream in digital format onto your pc?

even so, a dab broadcast is comparable to about a 160kbs mp3... sometimes less.

So none of you guys knows Mr. D ? Isn't this site big enough to ask for sets from him?

Kiss is actually transmitted at 128kbps on both DAB & Freeview but still sounds a whole lot better than it does on analogue radio.

Re: how does mercuryserver rip the Kiss100 shows

I heard MS has a satellite up in space. Then it records every set on the radio. Then, MS pays the martians four billion helmilites for each set. At least thats what I heard.
