NOTE: to save a copy of these talks on your computer instead of listening to it online (“streaming”) choose the “save link as” or “save target as” option available with right mouse button when you download. All of these files are quite large. A file download manager allows download options such as resuming a stopped or aborted download, having your computer disconnect from the internet when a download is complete, etc. Consult your favorite file search engine for download managers.
About MP3: MP3 is an audio data compression standard which trades small losses in quality for large reduction in file size. The above talks, because they are voice, compress as much as 100:1, yet there is no discernible degradation in sound quality. MP3 compression is desirable due to space and bandwidth constraints of the internet.
Special equipment or software is required to listen MP3 files. It appears these highly compressed MP3 files will not play on some MP3 players which expect 44khz, stereo data format. However, these MP3 files should be convertable to a suitable MP3 format in a way similar to the “How to convert to ‘normal’ CD audio” below. These highly compressed MP3 files are intended for listening on computer using an MP3 player such as Winamp or the Windows Media Player. Several free versions of Winamp are available at www.winamp.com. The Winamp player offers many improvements over a standard CD player and CD for someone listening to a talk. Among it’s talents, Winamp can pause/resume, jump to specific places in a talk, move back or forward in small or large increments, and adjust the volume and frequency of the audio; all useful features for listening to audio recordings.
