Greets all.
I recently installed Debian on my PowerMac G4. Having
used OS X for a long time, i've acquired a perfectly
organized library of full CD's, no drm, in the aac
format.
I've recently learned about how aac and mp3 are
proprietary formats, and what that's all about in
general. I've looked into and rather admire the Ogg
Vorbis codec, and want very much to use it. My
question is; is there a way (here in Debian, Sarge) to
convert my iTunes library (currently 20.8GB) to Ogg
Vorbis? I can't find a batch encoder or similar
myself, having spent quite some time on google.
Any information is sincerely appreciated.
--Q
Both mp3 and ogg remove information from the original that they claimm
the human ear cannot hear. However, apparently they remove *different*
information, and the sum of both removals is, I am told, something the
human ear *can* hear.
So don't do that. Don't convert mp3 to ogg.
But acquiring new music in ogg format is fine, as long as it hasn't been
converted from mp3 before you get it, of course,
