>>I believe that the Record-it software can record 8 plus hours of voice on a Zip disk. That would be almost 4 hours on a Clik.<< I shudder to think of what such sound, after going through that low of bit rate, and that high data compression would sound like. A CD holds 650MB of data. It has the capablity to hold 74 minutes of stereo sound at 44.1k 16 bit. Now, Clique holds 6.15% of CD capacity, so if you recorded CD quality sound to Clique, it would hold approx. 4.5 minutes stereo, or 9 minutes of mono sound. 9 minutes of mono sound for $10? That's not a very good deal. BTW, what is the actual horror figure of the compression, sampling rate, and bits that this RecordWhat? offers--esp. when fitting 8 hours of sound on one 100MB Zip. Is this info printed anywhere in the manual?
