Looking for a song right now, found it, but its on youtube. Looking for an MP3 for it.

Help!

Well, I've found a torrent with a radio mix version. (I dunno if that's the exact same version, but that's likely the best you'll find without some SERIOUS digging.)
I'll PM you.

Agh, that files huge! I've been searching for a while, but still haven't found anything yet. Except for a place where I think you can buy it...
-
You can tell your torrent client (hopefully you're using uTorrent) to just ignore all the other files and only download that one...
-
Had no idea I could do that.
-
I'm able to get the one directly from that video you posted if you want
-
Yes that'd be great.

Here's all 8megs of it. I re encoded it to 320kbps, just cause.

Just because you wanted to waste even more space?
That is useless, and probably made it that much lower quality than the original audio from the video. MP3 is lossy, Re-encoding a song is still lossy. Re-encoding a lower quality piece, like that probably was, into a "higher quality" version simply degrades the original and wastes space. Good going... :/
-
Haha, re-encoding. While I don't go batshit insane like Bobbias, it really does end up degrading the quality of the song.

Sounds alright to me when I crank it up on my stereo :)
No distortion or anything, so its good enough. Thanks for the help guys!! <33333333

Well, just because you can't hear it, doesn't mean it's not there. I've kinda honed my hearing to the point where I hear a large difference from a 320 kb/s MP3 generated from a CD and a FLAC (which is completely lossless). I believe 440 KB/s or so is considered "transparent" as far as MP3 is considered, and I can still hear the difference between a 320 kb/s MP3 and a FLAC.... 64 kb/s makes me cringe, 128 is passable, and the 96 kb/s stream that DI plays at is pretty decent too (however, they have a specialized encoder dedicated to streaming quality, so 96 kb/s sounds more like 128 or so.)
The big thing that bothers me about re-encoding it is that you just doubled the file size and made it lower quality at the same time.
