    how to get high quality music?

    As pointed out above, there is not way to go from a "low" quality mp3 to a higher quality audio sample. There are also other ways besides the few mentioned above to format your audio. The Windows audio codecs were mentioned, but the OS X codecs not. FLAC audio goes both ways quite easily. AIFF...

    What audio formats do car CD players play?

    A simple/older auto CD player will only play Redbook CD's--Compact Disc Digital Audio (CDDA or CD-DA). These are CD's that have a sample rate of 44.1 KHz and a bit-depth of 16. If you are ripping disks for your car's audio system then lossless audio with Redbook specs will have *.aiff or *.wav...

    Can I use a tube amp as a dac.

    Your sound card is a DAC, may not be the best, but based on your budget it maybe the best you can do for now. Merely connect it to your tube amp, or any other amp and away you go.

    Facebook Launches Tool for Reporting Suicidal Behavior

    Soul_keeperMost liberals/goths/anarchists either don't believe in god or hate god, so threats of damnation shouldn't be a be a deterrent. Think you might be a little off there in saying that liberals don't believe in, or, hate God. Typical conservative spin/disinformation, trying to make...

    nebunok...if you are ready to have sex, then you should be ready for the outcome....there are condoms, and pills....i know that they aren't always effective, but if you are smart and use your brain there should be no need for an abortion.

    Apple's Siri Won't Help You Find an Abortion Clinic

    ShodarYou realize you are asking crApple users to think for themselves? Is this even possible? This form of irrational stereotyping is old. Time to move on. Be creative.

    Apple's Siri Won't Help You Find an Abortion Clinic

    beaynCorporations trying to dictate our moral code, who'd have thought? Actually, Tom's omitted a lot of the original information. It is just a matter of time before this option will be available. Here is the important stuff that responsible journalism would have included: "Responding to the...

    Steve Jobs Wanted His Own Cell Carrier for the iPhone

    sundragonI wouldn't assume that - It's just as bad as them assuming we are mindless Apple drones who have no technical ability. Instead of posting how much better Android or Windows phone is by comparison, they are reduced to making fun and belittling Apple users - What bullies do to make...

    Steve Jobs Wanted His Own Cell Carrier for the iPhone

    ta152hMost of these whiners are kiddies that can't get a date, can't afford anything Apple, and have done nothing in their lives so look at respected people with envy. Don't get me wrong, outside of some cool vintage Apple stuff (Apple IIe/IIgs, Lisa, etc...), I would never buy Apple, and never...

    Steve Jobs Wanted His Own Cell Carrier for the iPhone

    [amk-aka-phantomI especially like the stupid accusation of "not being able to afford anything Apple". My gaming rig costs like $1900 by now; I could've easily bought a Mac, but I chose something that actually does useful things for its price. Yea, gaming is such a "useful" and productive...

    Apple: Sorry, No Siri for Older iPhones

    egidemObviously they know that it works on older devices, they just choose to ignore it and lie to everyone's face thinking that they're dumb enough to believe it. My guess is that they do not want to provide the support, and firmware updates that may be required. It is nothing new in the...

    Samsung Passes Apple for No.1 Spot in Smartphone Sales

    amk-aka-phantomUmm... you can use ANY carrier's SIM with ANY phone over here. You buy the device and the contract separately. Umm...don't know where you are from, but here in the US we can only choose from three carriers. It looks like there are only 1-3 carriers available per country, and...

    Samsung Passes Apple for No.1 Spot in Smartphone Sales

    amk-aka-phantomAll you who claim that Samsung phones are "free", don't forget that Samsung makes most of its money from the Asian market, where you don't have the BS with phones sold with contracts. People pay FULL costs for their Galaxies - that is, $550-700 for a Galaxy S2. iPhone costs the...
