Well...I was so excited about converting all of my protected .wma's to DRM free .mp3's. I purchased "Sound Taxi Professional" (the $25 version) and I went to town converting my entire library! It took me about 2 days, including the time it took to re-dowload my expired-licence tracks. I was so relieved! I would never have to worry again about being on a gig and discovering that one of my Napster tracks was suddenly un-playable. Yippie! HOWEVER...beware! I was horrified to learn (on my next gig) that a number of the .mp3's that I had created, either "skipped" or had "gaps of siilence" within the song file. I have no idea how many OTHER songs have been affected...and so now, I'm back to square one. I guess I learned that crime doesn't pay...hehe. Tom

Oh...bye the way...
If anyone else has had this experience...or, a positive experience with Sound Taxi....I would sure love to hear about it. Thanks, Tom

I've never had any problem using Tunebite to convert my Napster tracks... OK so it's a bit naughty, but Napster's hardly losing out on it, they still get my monthly subscription!

Ahhh...Tunebite!
Thank you...I'll try it.
Yeah, I guess you're right....I'm sure Napster is doing just fine.
I do appreciate the feedback....Tom
Perhaps I should close down all other programs while I let these wonderful programs do their magic?

Yes...Naughty indeed...it's just personal survival though...
I guess the ultimate solution is to get one of those "internet anywhere" cards so I can re-dowload/purchase tunes on the gig...

I use Rhapsody and one of my cell phones as a modem. I do not buy the tracks, I just stream them. I pay $14.99 a month and have access to all of their tracks. If a client ask for a track that I don't have, bam I got it. Why do I need to spend another .89 cent to own a track that I may never need again, or will get next week on one of my subscription services?

Thanks, Tom

TuneBite is the best because it does Itunes Vids as well!
