SHN Resources

Shorten or SHN is an audio file format that does not degrade audio when it compresses it. For those reasons SHN is sweeping across the Internet by serious audiophiles who particularly want to trade live music files across the Internet.

One of the sources from the originator of this lossless file formats in from Softsound:

One of the best introductions to this format comes from an article in the Japan Times at:

from their web site:

"The etree.org music community was created in the summer of 1998 for the online trading of live CD-R's. We do not trade CD-R's via regular mail. Instead, we trade by downloading losslessly compressed audio files, extracting these files, and then burning them onto a CD-R.

The etree.org community uses an independent network of file (FTP) servers that host and distribute Shorten (SHN) audio files."

Etree has a section of their site where you can download the software you need:
