JADE (full version w/ Beatles/Revolution#9ish intro)

i'm never satisfied with the results after uploading HD audio to youTube. I can always hear compression loss way high up in presence frequencies where samples are quantized into square waves- even at 48khz and high bit rates youTube is still gonna compress the f out of it.
 
so i tried a different approach- since i'm happy with the mastered mp3 sound/compression (it's even so to speak across all crossover threshholds) which as u know mp3 is 95% compressed -- but AAC does great job in the algorithm conversions.
so I simply exported a Quicktime movie [with the native mp3 imported audio inside at 196kbps] also at 196kbps (i THINK this matches what youTube does) w/ AAC codec - and it sounds very very much the same now on youTube ..like you're just listing to the mp3 itself... k it's not HD but the overall product to me sounds more pure/true to original.... any audio codec guru's in here wanna add/dispute/educate on this let me know - I'm aware too that recently youTube changed its recommend upload params to 48khz and 384kbps bitrate recommendation since CD's are fast becoming obsolete...

Behold a dawning sun that withers from a falling sky
Beyond the universe and buried under sands of time
A fleeting glimpse of others born into a world I see as nothing more than early graves and lack of honesty...
 
Please feel my jade...
Please feel my jade...
Please feel my jade...
 
There are things in me that you will never understand
Across a dark abyss without someone to hold my hand
A river Styx is just the first of many deeper streams that flow beneath my soulless body draining out of me...
 
Please feel my jade...
Please feel my jade...
Please feel my jade...
 
All the things you hate and fear
Crawl beneath your skin, my dear
All the things you hate and fear
Crawl beneath your skin, my dear
 
Watch the clock laugh at the minute and the second hand
Every hour wounds: the last will kill you where you stand.
Hell is just an after-thought up in a Dante's view
Behind the 7th level lies the things (you thought) you'd never do...
 
Please feel my jade...
Please feel my jade...
Please feel my jade...
 
All the things you hate and fear
Crawl beneath your skin, my dear
All the things you hate and fear
Crawl beneath your skin, my dear
All the things you hate and fear
Crawl beneath your skin, my dear
All the things you hate and fear
Crawl beneath your skin, my dear
All the things you hate and fear
Crawl beneath your skin, my dear
All the things you hate and fear
Crawl beneath your skin, my dear
All the things you hate and fear
Crawl beneath your skin, my dear...

    Cool deal bro as like I said I've struggled with the same. I think this mp3 'workaround' is effective because the math is the same / codecs are matching so they simply overlap and hence don't affect the audio output - like putting a model cut from a mold back into a duplicate mold etc - all the lines line up the same

    the song is fantastic as it ever was - a cool video would definately do th song justice. how about a real video?

    Hey thanks a lot!! :)
    hmm funny I'm leaning more towards Tunecore for our EP
    as I'm hearing they do a better job collecting royalties
    - any suggestions/advice welcomed :)
