Listening to music

KiwiAcoustic	Date: May 23, 2006 @ 11:29 PM Hi, when I am listening to other users music I only seem to get a short period of their music (30 secs or so)then it cuts out. Is there any reason for this??
Distilled1	Date: May 23, 2006 @ 11:30 PM what are you using to listen? are you doing hi or lo and what is your conection dsl or better or dial up?
KiwiAcoustic	Date: May 23, 2006 @ 11:49 PM I am connected with dsl I am just listening on lo and it plays through windows media player. I have never had a problem before, it has just started on every song the last few days. It say "end of file reached".

Distilled1	Date: May 24, 2006 @ 8:04 AM As they said don't streem with WMP I prefer winamp also its free and is very light. WMP buffers all the time I use it at work 'cause I can't install anything on the computer but its very old and works ok. WMP is so so heavy of a program and very prone to glitchs like what your describing. Not to sound bad but are any of those files really longer than 30 seconds what files and I'll see how they play at work today
HerSweetSoli...	Date: May 24, 2006 @ 9:22 AM Yeah, I really hate Winamp. I just use iTunes... It really isn't that bad. I actually... LOVE iTunes. Wooah.
HerSweetSoli...	Date: May 24, 2006 @ 9:23 AM But yeah, don't dl Winamp because it messed up my pc big time.
EvilPicnic	Date: May 24, 2006 @ 9:24 AM I have no problem with Windows Media Player at all.
EvilPicnic	Date: May 24, 2006 @ 9:27 AM Other than it completely taking over and wrecking my mp3 player, of course. Bloody thing. But for streaming, no problems.
TameasDust	Date: May 24, 2006 @ 9:34 AM DON'T USE itunes http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=1901906
GeneHilbert	Date: May 24, 2006 @ 9:34 AM Winamp works great - I've had it for years. I only use WMP for files encoded for it. "are any of those files really longer than 30 seconds"......... This would have also been my first question. There are a lot of short crap files on here. Make sure that this is not the issue before attempting to fix what might not be a problem on your end.
shadowself	Date: May 24, 2006 @ 2:02 PM VLC also works fine if you're looking for something not too bloated. It's definitely not pretty, but it will play almost ANYTHING you throw at it. I use both VLC and WinAmp.
Distilled1	Date: May 24, 2006 @ 3:22 PM I tunes =Bad unless your on a mac DL winamp it really is a light fantastic player.
Distilled1	Date: May 24, 2006 @ 3:23 PM WMP =WinBLOWS media player I had an old version of it I liked but the new ones are :yuk:
