Worth it? That depends...
I used to have a review for this before, where I complained about how you need the PS:T EE game in order to buy this, but I had it removed because back then that actually wasn't the case. Now it is, but I still give it a better rating this time. Because it is a really good soundtrack, and I'm very happy to have it in high quality. But I bought it along with the game during a sale and paid less than the soundtrack's usual price for both together. If you can get the game cheap during a sale, you get the original version as well, along with the standard mp3 soundtrack (which can also be found very easily to download for free). If you already have the EE (moreso if you don't), it's up to you to decide if the better quality is worth paying extra for. Another person wrote that some tracks have "ridiculously high quality sound" - I wouldn't go that far. Sure, 683 kbps sounds like a lot compared to mp3 quality, and 942 kbps even more - and it is. But the bitrates of a lossless format like FLAC cannot simply be compared to those of a lossy format like mp3. Bitrate in a FLAC file doesn't say much, if anything, about the quality of a track, but mostly about how much it could be compressed compared to the uncompressed .wav, which usually is 1411 kbps (CD quality). Keep in mind that this is lossless compression, so no information is lost from the uncompressed version. How compressible a track is depends on a number of factors, but provided the uncompressed source is of equal quality, a FLAC with 680 kbps is not in any way worse in quality than one with 940 kbps. I frequently rip CDs in lossless format, and the bit rates range from as "low" as 350 kbps to a little over 1000 kbps.
Hilft dir das weiter?
