Idk about mediamonkey but...

Itunes>preferences>advanced>importing

then change it to the Mp3 encoder and whatever quality you want.

[TransparentCranium]

I may buy one now that I know i don't have to use AAC.

do you know what a codec is? of course an ipod can play regular mp3's..do you mean they don't have to be encoded as AAC? mpeg4

[capa]

actually idk if what I posted is just for CDs or not. :confused:

[Thomaz]

How are these size wise? I normally wear a small but it depends on the arm length as i'm 6'. Would I be right in thinking they are quite short for size?

[HermitEdge]

Anyone know a relatively cheap brand for decent fitting plain tanks? I don't know if american apparel's various models, or alternative apparel, urban outfitters, h&m, club monaco, corpus, or something else on sale? I wanted to fuck around and use some paint my friend had lying around and do a peasant class ann d handprint tank or tee. Even a tee if it is relatively cheap and kinda slouchy or something. I dunno, just asking

Also, if anyone knew where i could find that Fourth Sex book for non-rape prices i'd really appreciate it.

waterproof boots that arent clunky

rain boots even?

[isjoshua]

Common Projects' Nylon Training Boot might be up your alley. Here's what a poster on StyleForum had to say about them:

The nylon boot is pretty awesome. I wore those through that tropical storm that just hit new york and they are great. I got stuck visiting my girlfriend @ college but I am glad I had these wannabe rainboots. The downside is that being lined in nappa leather + nylon outer + blackness = hot feet.

water doesnt soak through unless it goes through the tongue area down the sides. I waterproofed mine with that junk you buy at footlocker, who knows if that actually does anything. Water will actually bead up and roll off just like an umbrella.

My feet stayed dryer than if I wore beater sneakers and about as dry as if I had a proper pair of boots - however at least I dont have to trash a decent pair now that I have these.

These will probably be my go-to foul weather beaters , like what you had in mind. As for snow, im sure it would cut it too, but at that point I'd probably wear regular boots.

a sidenote. they are fully lined, tongue and uppers and everything in nappa leather or whatever, so its like a non breathable glove for your feet. I don't have sweaty feet but you will definitely notice the lack of ventilation regardless.

[Yardsale]

what style boots are these?

(THESE are banana republic "sadler" boots)

Jodhpur boots

do you know what a codec is? of course an ipod can play regular mp3's..do you mean they don't have to be encoded as AAC? mpeg4

Yes I know what a codec is....

(Although I guess i should have said: without the need to convert to a shitty apple format with a shitty apple codec)

I was under the impression that to play mp3's on ipods. they had to be re-encoded in apples proprietary format: aac. This not only takes time and harddrive space, but is annoying as hell.

Audio formats supported: AAC (16 to 320 Kbps), Protected AAC (from iTunes Store), MP3 (16 to 320 Kbps), MP3 VBR, Audible (formats 2, 3, and 4), Apple Lossless, AIFF, and WAV

Seeing as they list AAC and MP3 Separately, I'm thinking I won't need to convert my 140gig music library.

is there anywhere that still carries this Patrik Ervell sweater in a size small? I was set on buying lucky_cloud's and got the money together and found out it had been sold

Anyone know a relatively cheap brand for decent fitting plain tanks?

GELLER RIBBED A-SHlRT

Aghhh so sex. $110 though. It looks like I've finally found the middle one in 44 so I'm pretty excited.

As for cheap I wear AA fine jersey tanks almost every day. Not bad for $18.

You do realize that AAC isn't a proprietary format, right?

[panicnation]

Anyone know where I can find geller stuff online besides ordering from Blackbird or Reborn?

[kunk75]

bdu tanks are fairly heavy and well made. like $7 or so bucks at any army navy. i have a lot of h&m tanks for the gym and they've held up pretty well. $5 each.

I ain't puttin up $110 for a tank at the moment. Just don't think i'd get enough out of it. Thanks for the AA tip though. I figured they'd be a source but i really don't want to have to go to the store here and try shit on and buy it. So much judgement.

No h&m near me, but i'll check out my milsurp store.

How slim are Acne Max compared to April 77 Joeys?

Joeys are much slimmer. Max are slimmer than say new standards, but they're not really a "skinny" jean like the joey unless you size down on them too much or something. Max seems to be a pretty nice fit. Be careful as acne jeans all fit differently depending on the wash even if the fit name is the same.

Why does my pudel black coated jeans get dirty every time I use them?

I mean they collect all the dust and threads that they find.

Is it caused just by electricity? How can I reduce this effect?

Does all coated jeans have the same problem?
