I don't see anywhere in my post that YouTube is my reference source, but sometimes want to see occasional performances of musicians. Some of the tubes are on HD format with at least MP320 format, but that doesn't realy matter. The point is I used to browse tubes with no interruptions of some dummy commercials on the right or left side of the page. "Congratulations You Won!" while listening to performance. It's damn wrong for the site to be compromised by hackers.

Try using a popup blocker in your browser.

I double-checked my popup settings and the blocker is "on"... Should I security settings to highest? It's not happening with most of the sites I visit...

If using FF donwload the Adblock plus.

Invest in a CD player and even a turntable (OK that is strtching it) or get a decent computer streaming device with its own dac that you then feed to a good stereo, but use different sources.

Marakanetz,
I use Firefox and Adblock Plus with the default settings. I searched Youtube for the piece you were referring to and played the first one that came up (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8YcrGUkdD1I). I didn't get any commercial popups but Adblock indicated that it blocked one item on the page.

Good music BTW. I was not familiar with this piece.

Dick, That's exactly the artist I was listening to! The performance is stunning... so clean that I would even listen to it in some poor format such as MP96. Also I recommend to check the same piece by Ana Vidovic(WOW enjoy the views of the sexiest classical guitarist!)

Appreciate thanks, Marakanetz.
I believed people who had quite good 2.1 [sat+sub] computer loudspeakers can hear the different of HD format which recorded from modern device, and uploaded to youtube.

the example is one of my videos that I can hear the voice as I've mentioned.
please don't hesitate to try to test yourself and your hi-fi system, thank you.

Marakanetz,
The performance IS stunning. I watched in amazement. Apparently like you, I feel that musical performances are enjoyable on many levels not all of which require high-resolution playback. I think this is the primary reason that many musicians don't have expensive playback systems and don't seem to care - they are listening to music differently that we do (and it speaks to them differently). Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't trade in my system but I'm not going to dis a good performance because it's not hi-res.

Thanks for the lead on Ana, I'll *check* her out!
