final thoughts indeed

yeah I use a USB playstation controller. it's perfect for everything except maybe N64 but you can make that work too if you set the right analog stick to be the C-buttons.

wow some totally awesome guy pledged over $750! $1,119 to go, 43 days left

you weren't at Nerdapalooza by any chance were you? lolololololololololololol

for the longest time i used an old looped alternate version of the chiptune intro i made for 'Black Wing Metamorphosis' you can grab it here: http://hosting.thasauce.net/suzumebachi/FF7_OneWingedBit_2.ogg but my new phone can only do WAV or MIDI, and has a file transfer limit of 200kb that i have yet to figure out a way to bypass, so i mostly stick to MIDIs. generally either phoenix wright or super mario world.

I GET IT NOW! everyone who likes country must like garth brooks, everyone who likes bluegrass must like nickel creek, and everyone who likes hip-hop must like this song! it makes perfect sense!

absolute bullshit. that's like saying anyone who doesn't like tiger woods doesn't like black people. dumbest fucking argument i've heard on this site in ages.

people still play virtua fighter?

thursday is compo night. why not wednesday or friday or smth?

If it's hosting you need, I can set you up with a subdomain on one of my many sites. Only a couple of restrictions, but the most important: no porn.

What Vinnie said. WAV is basically the standard for lossless audio. It's also the best format as a starting point for encoding to any other (ie: MP3, OGG, FLAC, etc). So once you send CD Baby a WAV, they'll use it as a master for making all the other formats they're going to distribute. FLAC is lossless too, but it's not as widely supported and it probably has to be converted back to WAV before you encode it to anything else anyway. Is CD Baby really asking you to upload FLAC? Because that doesn't sound right to me. If I recall, there's two ways to get them the tracks for digital distribution: 1) Mail them a CD with your tracks on it, or; 2) Upload WAVs. CD Baby has pretty good customer service from my experience, so if you're still having problems just send them an email. Oy. Don't get me started.

Besides the part where it takes half an hour for one page to load, there's the part where it takes them 20-25 minutes to build your download package, and then there's a 50/50 chance of whether or not it will actually start downloading after that. If it doesn't, you have to build the package AGAIN. If it does, there's a 50/50 chance the download will stop for no reason midway through, and there's no way to resume it, so you get to start all over again! If they trashed their ridiculous download system and just used direct downloads they'd be fine.

I friggen LOVE the intro. Those pads are pretty great. Very reminiscent of bliss/henrik jose whom I adore. You lose me once that FM bass comes in though. It doesn't fit at all. The texture doesn't mesh with those super smooth chords, and it seems to be pretty much playing random notes. Once the main melody comes in again with the stuttered pads, it's all good again. The arps that come in later are a little over the top, but they mesh better with the FM bass than just the pads. Love the little tom fills. And then there's the guitar solo w/ the sidechained pads, faaaaantastic. Ending is a little weak though. But overall, pretty good stuff.

CD Baby has worked great for me in the past. I dunno much about TuneCore. Bandcamp on the other hand, from a listener's perspective, I absolutely fucking despise. Their download system is a Grade-A genuine hunk of flaming shit-stained garbage.

May I recommend getting a Sandisk Sansa e200 series. Don't get the one that comes with Rhapsody or whatever though (I think it's called e200r) because they don't take to Rockbox as well as the regular old ones. I've got a Sansa e260. Got it for $20 from woot.com. That's the 4GB one; has a microSD slot so with the default firmware you can expand it by another 4GB. Slap Rockbox on that bad boy and you've got yourself a hell of a mp3 player. Can even play Doom on it, or run gameboy emulators. Not to mention of course play NSF/SPC/IT/MIDI/OGG/etc/etc. Plus with Rockbox I believe you can even use a 32GB SDHC card which as you can imagine, is friggen awesome (though those micro SDHC cards aren't very cheap).

totally worth downloading based on title and cover art alone.
