Where can I get better copies of Quiet Please series other than the common 32kps files found on the internet?
When it comes to mp3s, it is my understanding that to maintain a reasonable degree of quality, a 128kps file is in most cases acceptable. But you can sacrifice and get away with going as low as 64kps to save some bandwith if your streaming audio but it's not a particularly desirable option.
But 32kps is almost as bad as it can get.
I emailed Radio Spirits, explaining that I was trying to find better copies than the ones commonly found on the internet, and since it was my understanding that it was they who owned the original tapes, I was surprised they did not list copies of the Quiet Please series available for sale, and wish to know how I might aquire the series on cd.
They replied as follows:

I looked over their forum but did not join, it seems they specialize in only certain series, and Quiet Please is not one of them. I didn't see one mention of it in their "misc series section either, so I didn't bother.
Who has first hand knowledge on obtaining the entire series in better than these 32kps ones?
