UNWANTED OPINION 2001 RELEASES DISTRIBUTED BY KOCH, ALLEGRO, ALBANY, HARMONIA MUNDI & QUALITON.

 

Listen to a 120 minute stereo broadcast of classical CD releases.

First, lets get the music started. If you don't already have it, you will need to download a small file...the free Quick Time plug- in for your browser OR download the larger file ...the free QuickTime Player (you can listen with this player while you continue to do other work on your computer). QuickTime plays well on both Windows PCs and Macs and it produces an audio streaming effect so you can listen as it downloads. In order to listen to these programs in Web "Mid-Fi" Sound, you'll need Apple's QuickTime and its Qualcomm compression. A 53 minute program has been crunched down to just 5.7 MB! In fact, if you have the browser version of the plug-in, it could be loading by itself now!

The QuickTime browser plug-in, thanks to its fast-start feature, will begin playing the program in mid-download after a delay that depends on your computer and your internet downloading speed. If you're downloading on a 56Kbps at 5K per second or faster - - it should start almost immediately (give it 30 seconds before pushing the PLAY button); with a 28.8 Kbps modem, it won't start playing until a minute into the download and it may not continue to stream because the modem can't keep up with the feed of the stream. For slower computers and modems, the break-even point is small enough that it should be heard after 30 seconds (but give it 60 seconds or more before pushing the PLAY button). You should be able to just stay ahead of the stream. If that fails wait a minute or two and press PLAY again....now you should have enough of the program downloaded to keep ahead even on a 28.8 modem....Cable or DSL could begin much faster. QuickTime is great because you can save the entire concert on your hard drive and play it back again and again.
