Stolen from [livejournal.com profile] malytwotails after I wrote in hers a couple times.

I'm killing IP logging and leaving anonymous posting enabled here, so let's see what happens.

I want you to post anything that you want in reply to this entry.

Anything.

A story, a secret, a confession, a fear, a love, an opinion, a critique - anything. Be sure to post anonymously and honestly. Post twice if you'd like.

Then, put this in your LJ to see what your friends (and perhaps others who you don't even realize read your LJ) have to say.

Harry Potter Book on CD, $50
Dual-1.4Ghz Athlon, $500
Handspring Treo 90, $150
SpeeX audio encoder, Free
Being able to listen to a book anywhere you go, priceless.

I officially love SpeeX. For voice recordings that sound unbelievably crisp and clean, it's able to still compress them down to around 27kbps, and that's in ultra-high-quality mode. If I turn off the 8khz-16khz frequency-encoding, which simply 'fills in' the voice more throughly without making it any more 'legible' then the bitrate drops to around 8kbps, low enough I could stream the entire 23 CD's over a 9600-baud modem. =^.^=
