Default Big Finish Does Downloads Now

Perhaps this is isn't news, but it's news to me at least. Big Finish finally stopped making you buy useless plastic CDs and buy downloads instead. Also the price to get say one of their Doctor productions is less astronomical than it was previously. And their site has be re-re-rennovated. http://www.bigfinish.com/Downloads

Does anyone know what the bitrate is for those download (so-called) cheaper versions? If it's 128kbps, we are certain being ripped-off.

What are the tags like? Are they full of all the relevant information and have a decent size cover or are they all blank. It will be interesting to see.

160? Pa! I record at nothing less than 192. I'd stick with the cd as it's printed (as opposed to burned) you've got a good storage life span.

Default recording speeds

How much better is the recording speed ? I usually use 48K so that I may
store more shows onto a CD. Is 192K that much better than 48K ?
