Wish I had understood the value of AR Rahman CDs when I was a child, can't believe I did not purchase them when they were selling like Rs 100-300. Now I am ready to pay more but none is available.
Hey Saritha Orient is high quality although it's notTagging @bhooshaniyer for Tamil labels & comment on the pricing too.
Plenty of cds are available - just need to look around. Hindi you can get full collection at very reasonable prices. Tamil Telugu is a bit pricey.Wish I had understood the value of AR Rahman CDs when I was a child, can't believe I did not purchase them when they were selling like Rs 100-300.

These are the pics I receivedHey Saritha Orient is high quality although it's notclear if they were rights holders or bootleg. But sound is great. Worth it at 1k if they are in excellent condition..the other two seem new to me, which suggests they are bootlegs with 50 50 chance of them being good. Full cover pic of all cds are recommended to be shared to comment confidently.
The first one seems legit but a big no to the other two.These are the pics I received

If you want a simple solution to download in their native opus format, use the following pageHow can these files be downloaded?
Thank you so much! Would you suggest m4a, wav or the opus file format for best quality download?If you want a simple solution to download in their native opus format, use the following page

go with m4a for compatability. You can also do mp3. wav or flac is total waste as the orignal youtube audio is anyways compressed. Opus is the original youtube format, but still not widely compatible with many players and also with respect to metadata.Thank you so much! Would you suggest m4a, wav or the opus file format for best quality download?
Try both m4a and mp3, if you do not hear any difference in resolution, stick to mp3Thank you so much! Would you suggest m4a, wav or the opus file format for best quality download?
It is a little difficult to state. The OPuS is the original youtube audio compressed (lossy) format. When you dowload into a lossless format like flac, wav, ALAC etc from the original OPUS, it is like extrapolating the pixels in an image or to say a digital zoom in a camera. There is no aural advantage, actually the quality will degrade with to encode from lossy to loossless format.I just tried this to download a video, strangely I noticed flac file is considerably bigger than the opus, why is that?
