in thread Size of *.wav on disk 'v' on cd

The commonality is that both audio CDs and WAV files have the audio data encoded in PCM.

That's wrong. WAV is a just container format (like .avi). The actual audio encoding is not dictated. It could just as easily be MP3 as PCM. That said, it's almost always PCM in my experience.

    Hi Folks $many x $thanx to all who replied. I understand the problem better now. And yes, Perl will be used to help me clean up the recordings... As for which format to record in, the real question is which formats can my playback devices handle? We'll see. Cheers Ron
