RTP-area local music and culture

[Ron Thigpen <ron AT fuzzsonic.com>]

FLAC is a good choice of codec.  Lossless, support for gapless playback 
(important for live recordings), takes tags and the code is open. 
Compressed files will be somewhere in the neighborhood of 55% of their 
original filesize.  If you're ripping in Windows, EAC works well. 
Google for an online tutorial in getting it set up correctly, there are 
a couple of very good ones.
