The They're official mp3s of the (so far; still hoping for CD at some point) vinyl-only Bobs. Woo-hoo. Easier (and probably higher quality) than ripping the vinyl oneself; more ethical than downloading them for free. (Except for the un-mp3ed ones, of course...) > subscription is for 10 future mp3s and I wonder how they are rolled up. Is > it one big mp3 for the entire record? If so, then that makes them about 40 > megs? Usually they come in high- (256) and low- (128) bitrate versions; sometimes there is only one version. They are broken out by track. > Also, have the delivery of your postcards been timely or have they > suffered the same lateness that seems to plague the bob vinyl deliveries? They've been late, certainly not up to the "released a month before the vinyl" standard claimed on the BadOrb site. However, they did just catch up; Along with Bobs 4 & 4.5, I received the codes for Bobs 4, 5, & 6. Has anyone actually received postcards? I've received sheets of BadOrb letterhead, with the usual Orbthenticity fiddle-faddle along with the access codes.

Website? FTP? Which one? If you are referring to my FTP server, it's in California, USA. It gets slow because its connected via cable modem, which has limited upload bandwidth. And at any given time of the day, I may be using up all available bandwidth myself. In fact, I often have to unplug that server becuase people downloading from it cause my connection to be so slow that I can't get anything done. *MoonDogg* - -----Original Message----- Subject: (orb) The Orb Server Where is the server located??
