Why, isn't one guitar track enough to convince

Your excistense is enought to convince me! :-)
Now seriously, it's strange. I've just
clicked the link and it went
past 15MB flawlessly. I cancelled the download there, but I suppose it was
OK. Could you try to download it again, just in case?
If the same happens to more people, I'll put it in Dropbox instead of
Ubuntu One. But as I have less space there, I'd like to try UO first.
I try again, it's downloading with 4.3 K/s at the moment, so ETA is more that
14 hours.
If you are concerned about file sizes, then this tip may be the best lossless
way to ship big sound files:
Convert every track to flac (with flac -8) and pack them in a tar file (or for
example a non compressed zip file if tar confuses people). I have tried with
rar, 7-zip and of course tar.bz2, but maximum compression with flac is the
best I have gone so far when packing multi track files.
..ah, ETA is now 10h and 47 minutes (if the download goes well), things are
getting better ;-)
