Ugh, let's just end this: iTunes is best for the buyer who just wants the songs, no frills, for cheap. Juno's good for the ones willing to toss some more coin for the added quality or choice of filetype. iTunes = bigger audience, Juno = more options. Now stop bickering so I don't have to type using the Wii any more tonight. XP

I think "DOCTOR LOVE 2009" has made it to number one of my favourites list right now. XD;

I had to laugh out loud! That was priceless!!
I use Juno because they provide lossless which loses
nothing compared to the original CD. Supposedly iTunes has the ability to provide lossless but Apple is refusing to do it yet. Oh well.
I really don't care whether you prefer iTunes or Juno, I just prefer to pay for lossless music that I can re-encode how I like (WAV for mixing, MP3, WMA, AAC, etc.) without losing quality by re-encoding as you do by having
lossy formats like MP3 or AAC in the first place.

MKwiakaku : YOU FAIL. Seriously. Lossless isn't compressed. FLAC is compressed but in a way that it doesn't lose any sound data.
Just a comparision. Rip 2 Fast's "Burning Up The Night (Total Fire)" from SEB 182 in 128kbps AAC, 128kbps MP3 and then WAV.
Listen.
All the 128kbps, even on a low-end system, should sound horrible due the high loss of high frequencies (18000Hz and up). FLAC should sound awesome.
At the studio quality level, I can understand, compared to a CD, that it's almost impossible to hear the difference.
For those interressed, frequencies comparision of MP3 128 kbps and FLAC of Burning Up The Night (SEB 182) :

Eurobeat Masters Volume 19 is out on iTunes!
http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZSt ... 2&s=143441
A lot of really cool sounding songs here!
I like Rock in the Fire a whole lot. Kinda sounds like Take Me Higher during the chorus. Has a nice synth riff, as well!
Before I Go is also pretty cool sounding. I like Luca a whole lot!

The Synth riff of "Dark Secret Love" is pretty good sounding from what I could hear.
"Running For The Fame" is one of the most epic songs I've heard in a long time. Kimmy never ceases to amaze me and captivate my heart~
Once I've got some money I'll have to buy some, and those WILL be included. (Kimmy's voice is so cute~)

The Roswell song sounds a bit like a Niko song mixed with Relight My Fire by Delta Force. Interesting.

Can anyone post a tracklist of vol. 19? :X
Lebon; yea sure you keep dreaming your sweet dream! Also, I might be turning deaf, but I can't hear anything above 16k Hz.

I thought 'Before I Go' by Paul Harris was the best out of the new ones on EM19. Sounds like the perfect way to end any SEB album.

For the record, I apologise for invoking what turned into another digital file quality debate. I was merely pointing out that people shouldn't grumble about not being able to download things when they are readily available on somewhere like iTunes.
Anyways, I'm off to check out the EBM vol. 19 samples!

I think that the Roswell song is the best of the two albums. Quite a powerful treat.
