I just noticed that SFBM is available on I-Tunes when you bring up the music store, on the front page. It says the release date is 6-13 but it looks like you can buy it now, I guess they got sick of the delays from Sony too smile.gif

Good news! The only thing I hate about iTunes is that the mp3's that they offer are shitty sounding 128 kbps. I don't understand why they can't offer 192 kbps or VBR mp3's? angry.gif

BTW, hi Kirsten! hi.gif

That's the thing--they're not MP3's. They're AAC, which is a more advanced format and can offer better sound quality at a lower bit rate. At higher bit rates, the two formats are comparable, but at the lower end, AAC dominates MP3.

At most places I've read, people usually compare 128 kbps AAC to sounding as good as 192 kbps MP3.
