another voice promoting positions left of the current government is a good thing
I don't really see how the attitudes of Pagani and Quin are left of the current government. They're just people (like Shane Jones, who already jumped ship) who are basically Tories, but came from a background where supporting the National party was unacceptable, so they joined Labour instead.

I got 5/6 on my Mac speakers - didn't get the classical recording (although given its age it would be interesting to know the original bitrate). I don't consider I have particularly good ears, although I do know what to listen for, e.g. the sibilants (?) on the Suzanne Vega are a lot more distinct on the WAV.
As I've said before, one reason to go with lossless if you can is transcoding, you might not be able to hear the difference between MP3 and lossless, but you are more likely to be able to notice a file that's been transcoded from MP3 into Ogg Vorbis or whatever.

I'm not sure if heroin is licensed here for severe pain, but similar opiates certainly are and just need to be prescribed by a doctor and signed out the controlled drugs cupboard.

{Just to fact-check you, and because I could really care less about personality politics:
The Luftwaffe fully exists and has done since 1956. It's the German word for "air force", so would have to be called something like that.
Although the word "führer" was largely expunged from the language after WW2. They use "leiter" instead}
