We have included the rated quality in the metadata, which indicates the possible differences in audio quality. So if you want to use only high-quality recordings for training, look for a higher rating value in the metadata. However, if a recording had no rating at the time of download, we left the value at 0 - which then does not necessarily mean that the recording is of poor quality.</p>",
