[Dixielandjazz] FW: Hearing the music

[Bob Smith]

Dear Jim,

Sorry, there was a slip of the pen, so to speak. I should have said 1TB hard 
disks, not 1GB.

I agree, of course, with your remarks about relative qualities of 
reproduction, but as the majority of my records were recorded in the 1920's 
and '30's I don't really hear a significant difference in quality. To get a 
reasonably high quality (.wav), this would reduce the capacity of a 1TB hard 
disk to about 28 000 recordings.

Memory sticks are very useful for transferring data, but an expensive way of 
storing data. Here in Norway a 16GB stick costs about 1/10 of the price of 
two 1TB hard disks. Thus 1GB of stick is about 125x the price of 1GB on a 
1TB hard disk.

Kind Regards

Bob Smith
