Would you folks rather have some 128k streams, many 64k streams, or split is and get a medium amount of 96k streams?
Only about 40% of my content is actually 128k quality. So if a track I have comes up that is 24k even if you're listening on the 128k stream it'll still sound like 24k.
I'm curious about what you all would rather see.
I'm making a poll as well.

I like the 128 streams because some of the songs are too distorted when they have lower streams. Like the Hallowishes Fireworks, the bass is overdriven at 64k.

OK I have been listening to the station for about an hour and I haven't heard any difference in the quality. But ofcourse I wasn't listening to the more Bassie songs so I will wait until I have more points to listen to one.

Subsonic: I'm okay with whatever works for you and the bandwidth. Since I mostly listen at work, the connection doesn't make too much of a difference through the laptop. The only time I notice a difference is if no one else is in the office and I can run the sound through my stereo speakers rather than the laptop's. I think the 96k seems to be a good middle road. It looks like there are usually connections available, which is great (when I'm on my old laptop--new one still is not a happy camper).
Thanks for a great station!

I think the 96k stream sounds fine. Also I appreciate the fact that the 96k stream doesn't include that cheesy subsonic intro.

The 96K is fine, it sounds like a 128K (to me at least.) My winamp doesn't go into mono.

OK now I have to say it is completely fine at 96k. Sorry to hear about the 128k going down. If we that aswell there would be a lot of space to listen.

I'd prefer 128k but if it's busy all the time I'd rather have more 96k

Just for the record there are no points given to suck ups.
