ok, i just started downloadin mp3s. I am using kazaa lite. All of the new songs that I download only play untill about 8-16 seconds, and then they cut out. The older songs i download play just fine. Am I missing a codec or something.

Probably these files are "fakes". To check you could try to download something totally unknown ...

RIAA has been flooding p2p networks with bad and phony mp3s - beware.

For the best quality mp3s use EAC (exact audio copy) to rip your audio CDs and LAME to encode them. Follow this guide:

I've also seen the issue on several mp3's where it plays fine for 10 seconds...then this gawd awful howling hissing starts that rattles every nerve I have. I was wondering if this was sumthin purposefully put out there to mess with those who use kazaa lite. Sounds like I'm not the only one who has encountered this.

firstly, bold people! you shouldn't be doing that.
Secondly, the music companies, civic minded people and the RIAA have been doing this for months, they put up songs with only intro up to 30sec's and then silence, songs with musical ditties repeated throughout the track, blank songs, songs with the wrong names etc...
They also do this with the songs with different file sizes, all are fake
Kazaa and eDonkey are riddled with these fake songs,

isn't it a hint to stop looking for these mp3's?

I never go out looking for a fake mp3. I'd much rather look for good mp3's.

BTW....The RIAA doesn't go after folks who download mp3s, they go after those brave enuff to share em.

There is no problem so big, that a brick placed against the proper skull cannot fix =)

well you're not gonna find recent good mp3's on Kazaa, you'll have to try an alternative.

First off.. fuck the RIAA and the fuckin government... 2nd off... what's the next best alternatives? You didn't hear/read songs from the 1600s-1900's ask people to buy their fuckin muzik... muzik should be free sound should be free not taxed this is stupid fuckin shit I ever had to deal with only because of that stupid fuckin rocker cracker band metallickmyballs gready jews always look for another route to get money.. once they figured out that rock is shit and is the dyin genre they just had to fuck everyone over at the end of their careers..
