.MP3
Imagine-se com uma parede da casa forrada a CD's, e que dentro de cada um enfiava +/-150 músicas. E agora, imagine o mundo todo a fazer o mesmo.
O Mp3 é mais um ficheiro a apresentar formalmente ao nosso sistema operativo. Permite comprimir tanto os bytes de qualquer som, que as grandes multinacionais da indústria discográfica esfolam-se em guerras, para evitarem que os lucros se lhes esvaiam por entre os dedos.
Mother of all MP3 Sites!!! Um portal prático é o www.mp3.com. Iremos directos ao software. Nomeadamente ao freeware. O Sonique é demais. Com um design altamente futurista e umas .waves visuais, perfeitas para o relax, em substituição dos catódicos hipnóticos da televisão, permite ler *todas as files. Pode optar por um caixote a ocupar-lhe o monitor ou pelas outras duas faces do software, que são verdadeiros exemplares dignos de usarem o nome de interface. Click, e rode tudo o que vir.
Mas há mais, e alguns, talvez ainda mais extraordinários, tudo depende dos olhos de quem vê.
Com a especulação económica em volta da net ao rubro, entremos por um site a condizer. Digite http://mp3.lycos.com e atire-se ao search. Façamos parte dos números.
Há agora, centenas de pessoas no mundo a despejar os tops na net, + os ditos underground e alternativos que já existem. Os criadores que aproveitem, e a outros que tenham paciência.... Se virem a vossa própria música, pronta a ser zipada e levada numa disquete, em algum cybercafé da zona, animem-se com a idéia de que ao menos é sinal que há quem vos queira ouvir. Em todo o caso, não é o artista quem mais perde, como também não costuma ser quem mais ganha.
Graças aos nossos amiguinhos do astalavista.box.sk, temos mais um motor de busca, e neste caso de Mp3, http://mp3.box.sk.
http://home.t-online.de/home/mastasky/frame.html é também um bom lugar para nos aproximarmos ao mundo warez e iniciarmos + uma deambulação ritual.
De qualquer maneira, aconselho vivamente a chupar o OnFire´s MP3Finder the best MP3 search engine Version 1.0 Final Beta just released. (15/11/98), em http://camoes.rnl.ist.utl.pt/~pccs/MP3Finder/. Execute-o sem medo.
Em http://www.geocities.com/SunsetStrip/Palladium/8445/ encontrará um Web Ring de Mp3 em português.
Claro que esta conversa toda não vale de nada se não possuír uma placa de som e umas colunitas. Por tuta e meia adquirem-se objectos espantosos que rivalizam com aparelhagens médias de carros vermelhos, parados em semáforos a tum-ts-tum.. Já agora, aproveite para meter Ram. Prepare-se para abrir mais programas e criar pastas. Em breve atolará o seu pc em música. Se gostar, claro. Da legal e da ilégau! Nunca mais terá silêncio.
Será que os walkman já foram de ####?
Seria absolutamente inglório não falar no Rio, e da sua influência nesta época conturbada, quando graças a ele, pode-se ter Internet Music in the Palm of Your Hand!

Picture yourself with your livingroom wall covered with CDs to the top, each filled with more than a hundred and a half tracks. Now, picture the whole world doing exactly the same thing.
Mp3 is just one more new file to add to our operative system. It allows you to compress any bytes of any sound. Which major discography companies are battling to keep, avoiding thus money to slip through their fingers like sand.
Mother of all MP3 Sites!!! A down-to-earth-n'-get-the-job-done portal is www.mp3.com. Slide directly to software. Freeware, to be precise.
Sonique is incredible. With an outstanding futuristic design, and some highly-relaxing visual waves that make TV set's hipno-cathodic rays obsolete, you can read *any file. You can opt for a huge box on your desktop screen, or any of the other two software visual options, perfect examples of what an interface really is. Click, and roll anything that comes.
With the Net's economic speculation back with a vengeance, let's link some matching site. Dial http://mp3.lycos.com and hop on search. Be part of the numbers.
There are, as we speak, people from all over the world downloading the net top charts plus the existing so-called underground and alternative. Let the creators take advantage with it, and others have to learn how to grow patience… If you meet someone with your own songs packed and zipped into a portable disk, in any cybercafé of your neighbourhood, be content!: at least someone is fond of your tunes. Anyhow, it's not the artist who looses the most, as usually is not the artist who gains the most. Right?
Thanks to our little friends at astalavista.box.sk, we have another search engine for Mp3. Meet http://mp3.box.sk.
Error! Bookmark not defined. is also a good site to get to know the warez world and begin another ritualistic stroll.
Nevertheless, I advise you to suck in OnFire's MP3 Finder the best MP3 search engine Version 1.0 Final Beta just released. (15/11/98), at http://camoes.ml.ist.utl.pt/
~pccs/MP3Finder/. Have no fear: Do it.
At http://www.geocities.com/
SunsetStrip/Palladium/8445 you have a Portuguese Mp3 Web Ring.
Of course, this leads us nowhere if don't own any sound board and a couple o'speakers. For a bargain, you´ll get amazing items that overcome mid-quality car hi-fi system installed on red cars, stopped at traffic lights going tum-ts-tum. Now that you're at it, put some Ram on it. Get yourself ready to open new programs and folders. Soon, you'll drown your pc in music. If you like it. The legal one and da Ee-legal!
The silence: Nevermore!*mp3, mod, it, s3m, wav and cd audio
Did walkmans just nmnpltm vanished?
It would be inglorious not to mention Rio, and its influence on our troubled times, if thanks to it you can have Internet Music in the Palm of Your Hand!
