I was trying to give advice about buying headphones to people I know, but they insist on blindly believing Bose makes "the best products." Then they proceed to insult me for thinking otherwise and trying to help. Very discouraging.
2 seagates have gone splat on me in the past
yesterday i installed a 1000gb caviar because my porn-- er, music storing capabilities are reaching their limits, so good times there
Once it's done, it's the definitive experience, except for lesser quality movies and movie sound/music than in the original Playstation version. Game sounds are also lower quality, mere recordings.
If only Final Fantasy VII for PS3...
Just a heads up guys, they're plotting against us.
Falcom originally released Ys I & II Eternal with 44.1 kHz WAVs. There's a soundtrack for that release that fades out instead of cutting off abruptly (for looping.)
Later Falcom realized that the music in the Ys I portion wasn't arranged very well. They released a "Limited Edition" Ys I & II Complete which is exactly the same as the above except for newly arranged, superior music for the Ys I portion!... Except 22.05 kHz WAVs! WHY???
There's no CD-quality version of that music.
There's an Ys I & Ys II Eternal - Unpublished Music album that has music that's different still.
I'm torrenting the older version of Ys Eternal now for the music because I can't find a working torrent of the OST. A couple seeders and 1.65 GB. Hope it finishes.
Ys Complete contains the redone new Ys I music, 44.1 kHz WAV. Confusing, eh? I just downloaded it.
I suppose there were multiple versions of varying quality that had different versions of the music as well.
Stupid Falcom. Sweet music, though.
What is fun is that I bought a cheapo $10 ocarina. So far, I've taught myself how to play Jingle Bells, the ABCs, and Twinkle Twinkle Little Star (yes, I realize that those last 2 are the same thing...). It only has 10 holes (one for the mouth, one for the sound, 2 on the bottom, and 6 on top), so it doesn't have much of a range. I'm hoping I can teach myself some Zelda stuff, but I'm inclined to think that the range just isn't enough. That won't stop me from trying though (but homework will:( ).
Just thought I'd mention all the "fun" I've been having while I've disappeared. Mouser X over and out.

I am spending about £415 ($597) on my next ocarina order from Focalink.
I'll then have a triple which will give me the max range that any ocarina company has ever made.
Obviously I have learnt some zelda songs, but a 8 hole ocarina might not be able to play all zelda songs, but it might be able to play cut down versions of some. 8 holes should give at least 8 diatonic notes, assuming it is tuned well and that it has 8 diatonic notes and not tuned in half steps (Not that I know an Ocarina like that - thats not to say that Ocarinas have to be diatonic) All of my Ocarinas (Only 3 right now =/) are fully chromatic. My Alto C is A4-F6, My Soprano C is A5-F7, and my Double Alto C is A4-C7.
Zeldas Lullaby is imposible on an 8 hole though, unless you only want to do the beginning 3 notes like you play on OoT.
