Graduated!

Friday, October 3rd, 2008

Hello there! Things have been quite busy here, with graduating and all, but finally I’ve got my Master of Arts! My calling card is starting to look rather impressive. Unfortunately, I haven’t been paying much attention to my weblog. For my graduation project, I’ve started a new weblog, though, but I’m a bit late in telling you. My graduation weblog doubled as my thesis which is quite unordinary but worked quite well.

Good old MiniDisc

Friday, May 11th, 2007

Like many people these days, I own an MP3-player. It wasn’t a cheap one, but it wasn’t expensive either and, well, despite it being able to play lossless audio, the audio-quality is not up to what I prefer. So, I decided to dig up my good old MiniDisc-player I had before I switched to more modern electronics. It turned out that it’s audio quality richly exceeds that of my MP3-player, despite the fact it uses lossy compression (AAC if I recall correctly).

So… I was quite content, let me tell you that. I think I’ll seriously switch back to MiniDisc until I can afford a Cowon iAudio X5 (which is great!).
