ok, I get it now. I can wait till May, been waiting since May 12, 1998 anyhow!OK Rob you were lucky I had to wait until 25th June 98 before I found APPT in the huge HMV store on Oxford street in London.
anyway after 1 hour 29 minutes I now have the 3.06MB Inspiration Lady.m4p sitting enticingly on my desktop such is the speed or lack of it on a 56K modem on a dial-up.Further Googling conformed my initial analysis of the built-in m4p protection. So tomorrow I'll be a good boy and cough up my 99 cents and get the software and download a fully-legal version of my own. Then I can burn it into a CD-R and if I wish make my very own mp3.but you are quite correct Rob the anticipation is half the pleasure so I won't be getting the other two at this time. It rather makes me think "what is the point of knowing the sex of a new baby early anyway!!"
Oops did I mention "sex"??
