PSF
music files are basically
songs from
Playstation games, except in incredibly
small sizes while still maintaining game level
quality. It's an excellent way to listen to
songs you love but are too lazy to
download an
mp3 of.
To play them, you'll need the
Highly Experimental Winamp plugin (http://www.neillcorlett.com/psf), and, if you don't already have it,
Winamp itself (www.winamp.com). There's a
readme file included in the
Highly Experimental zip file, which basically says put the
plugin into the Winamp plugin
folder, then
restart Winamp. Winamp will automatically load the plugin, and you can now listen to PSF
music (as well as minipsf files, although I have no idea what the difference is).
I don't really know many places to get the actual
music files, but www.zophar.net is always a good place to start.
The files take a
half second or so to load on my computer, but it has a 533
mhz processor, so I can't really say if it would do the same for any decent computer. Another kind of strange thing is that you can't skip ahead in the songs normally. You can try to make it skip to a certain spot, but it will just stop playing and move ahead faster than normal until it reaches where you want it to go.
Other than that, the music is pretty good
quality, and it's quite
pleasing to get an hour of music in a 1
megabyte file.
