Versions of these clips in QuickTime or MPEG formats would be greatly
appreciated!  Remember the world does not run on MS-Windows, and these
proprietary codecs are not available for those of us using Linux (like
me) or MacOS (like lots of my friends).  Posting URL's where one can
get the codecs is fine, for Windows users, but it's even better to use
video formats which don't require this.  <RANT> Formats and protocols
which only work on MS-Windows must die! </RANT>

Thanks!

Subject: Instant Shed vol. 1

I was recently in London (actually a trip booked for the postponed 
Wire-show at the RFH) picking up lots of vinyl & CD-material. I stumbled 
upon Bruce's Instant Shed vol. 1 (Bi Yo Yo / Byo (Sachet)) on Sup Pop and 
bought it. But it is sealed and I was wondering if any of you list-members 
have the tracks in some form so I could have a copy? That would save me 
opening the sealed silvery plastic thing round the 7".

Let me know off list at e-mail address: wfj.fsk@post.tele.dk
All the best, William

Actually, you can download Intel codecs for MacOS from Intel's webpage.  A
little known fact about QuickTime is that it's codec and file format
independent.  QuickTime can play back .AVI files.  Now, this codec is
probably a little *too* weird for MacOS.  But, Intel Indeo 5 works great on
the Mac - it's how I send high quality video clips to my brother, who is a
total Mac head.

As far as Linux is concerned, you're on your own though. (^_-)

Hi everyone,
	With Mike's permission, I've converted the AVI files to the ever popular
QuickTime format.  Since the file sizes ended up being about the same size
as the AVI files, and Mike's got some space limitations, I've placed 'em on
my own internal server.  
	So, surf to:
	http://63.225.173.84/wire
	and, give 'em a try.  
	-Paul

I have to admit GO2 by XTC is a great record but try listening to the vinyl 
copy at 33 rpm.It is terrific! And play it loud!

When I said GO2 what I meant was the freebie disc GO+ dub tracks.So what the 
hell I,ll just stick GO2 on at 33 rpm & hear what it sounds like! 
       Mistakenly Chriswire.
