On another note, I converted the file to a 56k 22kHz MP3 file. It is now (still!) 30MB large. But I did not detect any noticeable loss of quality. I wonder what others think (kind of an audio experiment). I have uploaded it to my site (or it will be in 10 minutes), and you can download the 56k file at: http://www.tulipfaith.com/files/Romans2-20070310.mp3
I think I will also convert it to 32k and see if it keep decent quality. I typically use 32k on my sermons ( www.cckpca.org/sermons/ |
Thanks Fred for the thoughts and for cutting it down. I think I'll take your version and put it on my server. No sense in wasting bandwidth.
By the way, what program do you use to convert? It's been some time since I've messed with uploading sermons and my tools are quite old. I'm hoping to find a nice freeware app that does the job nicely.
