MP3 Audio Recordings of BTES
2006 Sessions
These recordings have not been edited or corrected for volume,
ambient noise or extraneous recordings.
We hope to have them edited and parsed for individual participants in
time.
If someone would like to volunteer to take on this task, please don't
hesitate to contact us.
Note that these are large files, so
high speed access is a must! They have been compressed as much as
possible without sacrificing quality.
