Hi,
I just listened to a band that I recorded on my space and it sounds absolutely shit. Does anyone have any tips? They took it off a CD I burned for them could that be the problem?

As has been said before, Myspace compresses the bugger out of music. You're better off uploading to somewhere like soundclick or soundcloud and embedding the music player from that site onto Myspace. Check my sig for an example of what I mean

I wouldn't worry about it too much- if the music is good, you'd be surprised at what people will listen on and still enjoy.

yeah the quality is pretty bad - you get used to it though.

this is very true.

it's an argument which has been made many times, but when you look at the way people are chasing superior quality formats in film for example, music delivery seems to be going in the opposite direction... we probably all know people who have ripped all their CDs to mp3... or only buy mp3s...

Who cares when you're listening on your laptop/cell phone's built in speaker?

MySpace used to reduce the bitrate of your mp3's to 90kps ... you could download one to see if that's what it is.

My Space sounds bad.
