Hi, I have no idea if this has already been asked, although I searched the forum quite a bit... I was just wondering if there was anywhere where I could download some full episodes of AIO in at least 128 bit quality (without having to purchase the download). I've found heaps on Kazaa and WinMX, but the people who have them are rarely online. I know that OnePlace.com allow you to purchase an mp3 download although they don't say what quality their mp3s are. Anyhow, if there is anywhere where I can download episodes, please let me know, and if no-one has them online because of copyright reasons etc... that's cool too, I'd just like to know. Thanks. Smile

Well, the various file sharing places have them, I've heard, but it's at minimum unethical to get mp3s of episodes you don't own.

Personally, I've converted a good deal of my collection to mp3s (a project I never near finished)... but, they were episodes I owned. I have them on mp3s for easy computer listening, not to have a free episode copy. I already paid for the episode.

So, in other words, I would strongly advise against downloading mp3s of released AIO episodes.

I can agree with you there, but unfortunately where I live you can't buy them anymore. Which simply means I'll never get to hear them, but oh well.

Actually, I just found a program that allows me to record live streamed audio, and it cuts out the buffering gaps... so I can now listen to some episodes from OnePlace.com, without them stopping all the time.

But yeah, please realise that I didn't want to download them for the benefit of not having to buy them, just wanted to hear some.

OdysseyFan has http://www.characterdramas.com/aio_mp3s.htm where you can grab AIO eps that FOTF doesn't offer anymore or yet (no copyright infringement)

http://sdp.ppona.com/ will let you record streaming WMA (clipping the buffering)
http://rawavrecorder.homestead.com/ will let you record RAM/RM (clipping the buffering)

Both are free, but SDP records to WMA, and rawavrecorder records to wav, so expect RaWavRecorder to use 45+ Mb per ep.

I know I shouldn't do this, but I have a bunch of AIO MP3's. Many of them are 32 KB, taking only 5 MB hard drive space. They're bad quality. I wouldn't feel right giving you anything quality higher, anyway my connection is very slow!
