We'd like to know what you think of 56k streams -vs- 128k or 64k, do you listen in an environment where bandwidth is expensive? When I listen to 128k streams, it sounds nicer but there are more network problems. We're considering moving to either 64k or 128k, it should sound slightly better but it could create network hassles. We'd like to know your opinions.

New Tracks

• Billy May & His Orchestra - I Believe In You
• Terry Gibbs - Joshua
• Quincy Jones - Cain's Hundreds
• Astrud Gilberto & Walter Wanderley - Call Me
