How to Podcast (part 7) - Wipeout Pure Sound-Seeing Tour!

this is an audio post - click to play
I bought a $5 audio cord at Best Buy so I could 'line in' my Sony Playstation Portable to my Powerbook. I used Audio Hijack Pro to capture the sounds and create a Sound-Seeing Tour of Wipeout Pure and other PSP games. It sounds a little low in iTunes, so you might want to crank up the volume if you're using that. Playing it in QuickTime it was louder. Hmm. Dunno why.
This sound-seeing is the first track in Wipeout Pure, Vineta-K, using the Piranha hover racer. I received a bronze medal. I've done better on this track with other cars, but the Piranha is my favorite.

I also posted this on Rizzn's Podcaster: [test mp3]. Here's a couple things on their site. First it's free. Can't beat free! However I have two complaints. One, you can't control the file name and extra attributes. I named my file and added comments and a photo to the MP3 file. Their system, downgraded the audio to 64kps (from 192) and stripped all my comments and changed my file name. So again, can't complain cause its free, but... ;)
