Each week you will recieve approx. 360 million bytes of logarithmically compressed PCM data (at 20khz sample rate) which will wholly reproduce a complete LP. A wide selection of releases is intended, to appeal to classical, country, and rock tastes. Requests for selections should be sent to: ucbvax!randvax!paramountvax!usenet_releases -or- ucbvax!randvax!warner_bros!vp_releases -or- ucbvax!columbia!rca!red_label Note: network connections with less than 10k baud links should probably not subscribe. Hard copy analogue form is widely available in those cases. Format note: Near future releases will all be in the standard SONY PCM format, but eventually conversion will be made to CIA reference 7-298.212 when that becomes available...
