[peel] Archiving the tapes

[rockerq@...]

Well I have kept all my original files (as AIFFs), and have then corrected 
speed and edited together as shows, and created FLACs of these.

I guess for archiving purposes we should keep FLACs of both original rips 
(for each side of each tape) and of individual shows.

That way we have the best currently available copy of each show, but also can 
go back to those original files if other recordings of the same show turn up 
at a later date, and maybe fill in the tape flip gaps or other missing 
sections - or indeed if better software becomes available to increase the sound 
quality we can extract from those original files.

So for rippers returning their files to me - by all means send me your edited 
shows, but also throw in a copy of your original rip files, assuming you 
still have them!

Some have already sent me just the unedited original rips - and that is fine 
- although it will take me a while to get round to editing them myself - I can 
hardly keep up with the ones I rip myself! So extra thanks to those of you 
who also create mp3s and make those available to the group!

Cheers!
