Im sure these have been answered a billion times, however I don't know how to go about finding it on this site. If you can tell me how that would be great also!
1. I somewhat know the differences between FLAC and MP3, but Im no computer genius? Which do you use and what do you suggest for me? I already got Nero and the FLAC plugin so either is an option for me.
2. I don't know if any of you are livephish/ nugs.net wizards, but I am having trouble downloading anything from the sites. I have all the current updates so that isn't it. However when it says download, I click it and it says. Error: Security clearance not excepted (or something along those lines). My computer shouldnt block it since nugs.net is a trusty source. Any ideas?
Thanks for any help! As I said I'm new at downloading shows so any tips are much appreciated.

lots of info available here...look in the index to sticky threads, then torrenting for beginners (this is the flac route)...or try the search feature re flac...if you don't download flacs via torrenting, you may as well look at the spreadsheet -- but friends don't let friends do mp3s

I've had JavaScript issues while trying to download from LivePhish using Firefox. A quick changeover to IE fixed that problem.

gotta get on the 24 bit FLAC's - can't play em on a CD player (CD's can only handle 16 bit I believe)Incomparable sound
For Live shows you should really only have FLAC or AAC - unless your sound system sux anyway. For studio stuff - MP3 is usually fine (320 minimum or at least VO)- unless it's an album like "Close to the Edge" or one of the other 1000's of studio albums of that ilk - nothing compares to the vinyl except the 24 bit lossless formats. They're big though - usually 3-5 gigs for an album - but you hear it the way it's intended to be heard.

oh yeah and you should know your history too..............DIGITAL TIMELINE
1841 Augustin-Louis Cauchy first proposed sampling theory.
1928 Harry Nyquist presents sampling theory to the American Institute of Electrical Engineers
1937 Reeves proposed pulse code wave modulation (PCM) as a way of storing audio
1948 John Bardeen, William Shockley and Walter Brattain’s bipolar junction transistor, which made compact digital circuitry a reality.
1958 C.H. Townes and A.L. Shawlow invented the laser.
1960 I.S. Reed and G. Solomon’s work on error correction codes gave us the technology that would be directly applied to Compact Disc twenty two years later
1967 Japan’s NHK Technical Research Institute publicly demonstrates a digital audio recorder running 12bit resolution and a 30kHz sampling rate.
1969 Physicist Klaas Compaan uses a glass disc to store black and white holographic images using frequency modulation at Philips Laboratories.
1977 Sony, Mitsubishi and Hitachi demonstrate digital audio discs
1980 Sony signs up to Philips ‘Red Book’ laser disc; Compact Disc is born.
1982 Sony and Philips launch first commercial CD players.
1987 Sony launches Digital Audio Tape (DAT) with 16-bit, 48kHz digital PCM system.
1994 MP3 (MPEG 1 Audio Layer 3) finalised. A compressed, lossy 16/44.1 format using approximately 20% of the space of a WAV file, it ushers in online music distribution.
1999 Super Audio Compact Disc (SACD) launched, offering high resolution digital sound using the Direct Stream Digital (DSD) system, with effective 20-bit resolution.
2000 DVD-Audio is launched from the DVD-Forum; offering up to 24-bit, 96kHz resolution from a DVD.
2001 Josh Coulson finalises Free Lossless Audio Codec (FLAC) v1.0.
