Hey Tenacious! glad your enjoying the MASPlayer..........I agree 100% that its one of the most worthy projects to continue. Amigas Need simple MP3 capability in easy hardware to connect. Heck Playstations and Sega Dreamcasts have MP3 decoders like this.......why not Amigas?
Something strange though.........I was able to play Super High quality 365kb MP3's on my 7mhz A600 but was only able to play up to 128kb on my SX32 68030 50mhz. I was wondering what the heck was hindeing it...might of been some hack running in the back...........so let me know if you are able to play those 365kb ones..............nevertheless...the 128kb ones sound superb and are smaller files.
By the way..you can also play WAV files with AMPlifier and drop them in with the MP3's Playlist if you need to play some voice recording from a PC or something. I wish it could Play MODS and 8svx sound samples.

Dont you think the MAS player is well... erm.... how do you put it... DEAD, for a good reason? All Amiga users now have a different PC/Mac as their main computer on which they play their MP3's etc.
Amiga's for Amiga stuff... something else for everything else? Dont you agree?

I DISAGREE with you 100%! Would you want to play SLAMTILT on your PC? or on your Amiga? Do you want to use SCALA on PC or prefer Amiga? is putting YAM on PC same difference as using it on AMiga?
Well the clear answer is heck no! we will take anything we can get for out Amigas so that we can do it with our Amigas and not need a PC as a humungous DONGLE just to play MP3's..................Plus Amigas are portable....when compared to PC towers that require a VGA monitor with it...........Amigas can use a 5 inch LCD screens and you can install one in your car. Look at my photo album to see my A600 which used to have the MASPlayer connected to it.
More MAS Players! and more powerful ones! Less CPU load please!
