V2 is reasonably popular too if you want to do a third torrent.

I think for the sake of 10mb difference per album, 256CBR and V2 are completely superfluous if there's a V0 rip.

Some tips for What. People there love FLAC, especially during a freeleech. The same 15-20 FLAC rips I've done have been mad busy all freeleech. People will happily download a FLAC version of an album you upload even if a V0 version is there and you have it. Always keep the cue and log files for FLACs.

Also, the recommended artists tool is great for downloading but useful if you're uploading too. Without abusing the system you can attract a few more people towards your torrents by ensuring the artists that recorded the albums are linked to a few popular acts.

I'm using my account to download Avril Lavigne albums. How angry does this make those of you without accounts? Uploading is a nightmare for me any time other than a freeleech so I'm very happy about this.

V2 is 25% smaller than V0 which can be as much as 30-40MB per album (or the difference between 750 or 1,000 albums on your portable).

256CBR is superfluous, yes, because it's a similar size to V0 and often of lower quality (because it's not necessarily LAME-encoded).

For those of you still looking for an invite: if you're a member on another private tracker have a look at their forums. There often is a thread for people offering invites or exchanging invites. That's how I got mine just in time for free leech :D

More making it too much of a target to be shut down.

Does anyone really think it hasn't already been infiltrated and seeder IP addresses are being gathered? They're just waiting for the outcome of the Oink court case before they act. If the defendants get convicted and you've uploaded anything to what.cd, especially a pre-release, then....

Very limited semi free-leech on right now. Any filled requests between now and the end of the year are free-leech and any new torrents are free for the first 6 hours.

etc.

On the plus side you can upload any old shite in FLAC right now and be guaranteed a full download.

It's a shame they're not going to reach the target for the requests promotion they're running by the looks of it.
