Re: [IRCA] Audio quality - was Turks & Caicos on 530 from November

Bruce, I used to have a lot of .rm files but I converted them all to mp3 
using a program called Joyce Audio Convertor. It works great, you just 
have to be careful about getting the wav bits and the sample rates to 
match, otherwise you get artifacts.

Now, all of my files are in the mp3 format.
