One of the dilemma facing a business like ours is the conflict between the need to show off our wares to their best advantage and the need to secure our property.
There are a whole range of solutions adopted dye different sites including special streaming plug-ins. We decided to keep it simple and make LoFi Clips of all our pieces and that is part of our standard production process. Usually we just take the first 30 seconds and publish them at 22k bits per second as compared with the 192k used for our paid for material. This means that browsers can check that it is the piece they were looking for and get a feel for the performance and orchestration but not the full audio quality.
So we have introduced a few HiFi snips which are typically of simillar duration but the files are ten times larger. We have also included a whole piece because although it is very nice it is rather too short for us to sell. This is a Mendelssohn Song Without Words.
The streaming sample today is a HiFi Snip of JS Bach's Toccata and Fugue in D Minor played on steel drums and Mega Moog synthesizer.
