Hello, just checking on a few things. Any trouble with the first Albany set? Got an e-mail from someone saying they had problems burning the first set to disc. Any tracks cut off? If so, let me know, and I'll repair them. Also, depending on your options in your internet browser, you might recieve those security messages asking if you want to install this or the other thing. If you use the new URL I give for the site http://Listen.To/RareGord
then you usually get a pop-up ad, but sometimes you get a security message asking if you want to install the Xupiter plug-in toolbar. Take my word, and that of other frustrated users, that you don't want this bar. It changes the searching of your browser, and it randomly pops up ads when you don't want them. So, for instance, if you're typing a message on this board, or filling in a form, or just clicking along in your browser, you'll suddenly get this ad that you have to close out of. I'm sorry if you get this bar installed if your security settings are not set to notify you, and it automatically installs. Load up the Xupiter.com site and find their uninstall tool, and that should fix it. Some people say it doesn't work, but it worked for me.
Talk later,
Matthew

Matt, I had two songs on the first set that wouldn't play right away after I burned the dick. I put the disk in a different CD player and it worked fine....strange.

Bob: I've had problems like that too...either thing you said above...but things usually work out alright eventually! (Suppose it has something to do with this Great Lakes air in Michigan?)

Did you leave them in MP3 format? Maybe you forgot to convert those 2 songs to .WAV files. MP3's usually play in DVD players and computers but not in other players unless they can specifically handle that format.
