It would be very useful if there was information about the size of a file not just it´s length. As I tend to upload rather large files (the last one was 50+ MB) some users may want to know what to expect before hitting the download button.
Hi Simon,
I generally agree on this and a lot of people have asked for it.
But think about it:
We would have to add another two statistics- one for mp3 and one for wav or aif.
That adds considerably to the data load of the page (another 10 stats per page, for a page with 5 sounds). It would also clutter the page visually even more.
I think that us audio people can roughly estimate how big a file is by looking at its length.
So its probably not worth it in my view.
Thanks for your input once more Simon. I 'd like to talk to our coder about this, and see how easy it is to get the data from the mp3 (I know we already have the data from the wav or aif, but we 're not displaying it). But I 'm not entirely convinced that we should show it.
Also, I wanted to thank Dave L who emailed me about this.
Regards,
T
