>Album torrent is the .cue file and one or two flac files

>>61624661
Yeah man, wtf is the point, it just forces whoever downloads it to split and tag the files

>>61624661
Burning a CD that's identical to the original

>>61625118
sounds like a pretty niche application, especially nowadays

but usually I see this for vinyl rips, so what would be the point then?

>>61625240
What's the point of ripping vinyls in the first place? Unless there is no other medium available (unlikely)

>>61625254
For the superior audio listening experience :)

>>61624661
Easier to burn on CDs.
>tfw musicbee doesn't pick it up if it's more than one flac with a cue file

>>61625267
Yup. I run all my music through an old reel to reel and encode it in flac. Really brings out the analog warmth.

Use AIMP's converter to split by cue

>>61625118
You can do that when the file is split. CUE files are arbitrary metadata.

Why does this even matter to you? Foobar2k can read the cue sheets and display them as separate tracks. You can then use it to split or convert files for your portable media player.

>>61625938
Waste of time considering there is absolutely no reason it shouldn't already be that way.

I'm fucking glad I use foobar2000. It makes splitting up that bullshit so easy.

Welcome to 2017. Optical media is dead. You are urged to send your CDs to a recycling facility after ripping them.

>.cue files, .mp3 files, .flac files, a bunch of fucking files I've never even heard of before, not one but TWO different spectrogram screenshots for each and every track

I deleted everything but the .flac and the cover.jpg.

Anon my HDD isn't on the cloud.

Nigger you offend me, I have 100% of my music stored on my own hard drives and stream NOTHING.

One cover.jpg is better than embedding a separate cover.jpg inside of every single track file.

>>61624661
good luck for people downloading non english music. what happens is
1) the cue file is not unicode
2) the text in the cue file is corruped like Óèêèïåäèÿ å ìíîãîåçè÷íà åëåêòðîííà åíöèêëîïåäèÿ.
3) you have to manually fix the .cue file by copy and pasting names of songs into it


bonus points if the album has 10+ tracks like most

>>61626420
cool blog post

On books on cd's that I get from the library
I do the whole 1 flac + cue file thing. It helps
when a book has 13 cds etc. It's not that hard
to turn them into separate flacs (at least on
Linux)

I hate this shit so fucking much.

It's not difficult splitting the tracks on pc, even on android by using Poweramp if the tracks and cue is in one folder it will show them splitted in the app
