No torrent may contain compressed archive files, i.e. RAR, ZIP, GZ. For content allowed with this tracker it doesn't make much sense to pack it in compressed archives. Thus, we assume that the torrent uploader wants to hide impermissible content in case a torrent contains such files.

I have a digital satellite radio broadcast recording, a webcast recording, or audio material taken from a digital TV broadcast. Is it allowed to seed this recording on DIME?

Digital broadcasts and webcasts are all lossy compressed nowadays. In principle it is not allowed to share lossy compressed material on DIME. An exception is made when the following criteria are fullfilled:

It is known that there is no lossless (better quality) source at the trading community's disposal.
The lossy compressed material is shared in its original compressed format.
If the material was compressed at a bitrate of 192kbps or greater, and it is not known to be available in the original format, then it is allowed to share it in a lossless compression format. Such torrents must include the following information in both the description of the torrent and the info file:
That the material comes from a lossy broadcast; and
State the compression format and bitrate of the broadcast.


you tried seeding lossy content obviously , look at the spectrum they posted

yes..original radio broadcast onto cassette then ripped to the PC then edited and trimmed..the splitted up and converted to FLAC.....using dbpowerconvertor
should i use low(compression) when converting to FLAC because i used high compression... and on each FLAc file it says 1-2 ratio(48%) but when i use low compression each track is different ranging from 70%-65% 1-4 ratio :unsure: :unsure: :unsure: :unsure: :unsure:
