Any chance you can re-save it as an .MPG or other broadly-compatible file format as well? I refuse to "upgrade" to the spyware-filled WMP 9.

That's the first time I've heard that complaint. What player do you use?

Not RealPlayer, I'm sure-- that's even worse!

I have WMP 8.0 installed; not planning to go further than that - have heard enough reports about the built-in DRM "phone home" stuff in 9.x versions to want to avoid it. At least until there are compatible 3rd-party players or hacks to fix WMP.

I have Real and Winamp players as well, for audio files that require them.

I don't understand why people don't stick to hassle-free MPG files, even if they're a bit larger. A dual-format link, at least, so we can avoid WMP 9 files.

Thanks.
