Will look at these shows when I get back from the pub. I wonder if I can create my own Mooo I have all the shows on a Nas drive which has the capability of sharing to the world. Then again there is the worry of security and a repeat of the 458 shows on Soundcloud fiasco of last year.....

I hit a few missing episodes along the way which I wanted to request reups for, but I noticed that a big block of missing shows were the DK recordings.

Simply to hold on to them in best and accessible form (at the time), I encoded these wavs to MP3s at 320kbps, fearing that I'd lose quality at any lower bitrate.  Good point, though.
