> WAV files in 24-/32-bit resolution downloaded via Bandcamp may not load instantly and require quick supplementary treatment. Simply opening the respective file with the freeware Audacity and then shutting down the application without any further action resolves the issue.
wtf, whats the issue? And why does Audacity (apparently) modify files without asking?
24/32bit WAV is a bit more exotic/ambiguous than 8/16bit, it's supposed to use a different format identifier (WAVEFORMATEX) but sometimes doesn't, some software only handles one identifier, some only the other, the better software handles both of them... So I would tend to think that the DJ software just has incomplete 24-bit WAV support (which is no surprise due to this mess).
Yes, although in hindsight it's easy to say that was poorly executed. It looks far too big and tried to be more than it should have been in my opinion. I'm thinking more along the lines of small neighborhoods on the edge of a city that can provide stronger logistical support.
Closer to Sun City Arizona.

This is also an interesting point in the article. Was it actually a scam or just overly ambitious and poorly executed?
I used it exclusively for about a year (iirc) on Linux and had only some minor crashes. When they switched to Chromium I switched to Firefox and never had a single crash since. (It's not only luck, I disable all the feature-creep I know of in about:config)
We actually do this at my company. Our user base is mostly security focused and browses with javascript disabled so we had to find another way to make reading a simple text with some pictures thrown in terribly slow for them. We like it so much that we are currently developing a server runtime for it called node.css. We are also working on a meta package manager based on this runtime so we can manage our dependencies on different package managers more easily.
