E-music/VBR tracks, anybody else fallen for it?
I've had an e-music subscription for the last few years. It's been great for finding new music, non EDM as well as EDM but I just recently discovered that most of the music I have downloaded was VBR (Variable Bit Rate). While some of the music is up to 290, the avrg is around 190'something. I never really noticed until I got back into mixing and got my vci. For the past 3 years I had been collecting tracks in anticipation of going digital and what I disappointment to realize a lot of them are of lower quality than what I would want for a mix.
Pretty irritated, guess I should have done my research when I started and I should have known there would have been some compromise for the cheap tracks. I guess I would be more ok with it if there were a way to see what quality the tracks were before purchase.
