Outlook for 2013
In 2012 much ground work was done preparing the way for PerfectTUNES (tagger, album art fixer, AccurateRip checker, a media manager on steroids) and Songly (digital music store) to launch, the fruits of these trees will flourish in 2013.

Time really does fly...AccurateRip has now been running for 10 years and has processed 143 million discs over those years and has been used by almost quarter of a million people, it is satisfying to know that there are this many people who care about the quality of their rips. Here is to the next 10 years.

Using Our Own Tools
Surprisingly, we do not get the chance to run dBpoweramp internally processing huge numbers of files, our user base does for sure (dBpoweramp is trusted by many a large/med/small organization). Well this is set to change, dBpoweramp will be processing ~ 28 Million tracks for Songly, internally we will store as FLAC and process the 90 second preview clips to both mp3 and Ogg, using our encoder know how to squeeze great sound from small file sizes.
