    Hi Guys/Gals..

    I have just bought the new Chemical Brothers album from the mycokemusic.com site..
    When I went to play it Media Player tried to download a license but said someting like it was corrupt..
    the €11.99 credit i had is now gone on mycokemusic.
    What should I do now as I cannot find any way of contacting the people in charge.
    Has anyone here got contact details??

    Thanks,
    Hakko

    The site you have tried to enter requires Internet Explorer 6 (or better) with Windows Media Player 7 (or better) on Windows XP, 2000, Me or 98. Click Here to use our Doctor Download application to help you check your configuration alternatively Email Dr Download.

    Please try again.

    Burn the mp3s to cd as an audio cd and rerip them.
    Will probably sound crappy but it should let you listen to them.

    You obviously haven't used that site in a while, have you.....
    You'll need at least 196 bit for anyway decent quality.
    Then again, some people don't care, I guess.....

    In the help section of Mycokemusic it says that you can download it again by going MY MUSIC > View Library and you can recover it.

    the 128 variable bit rate is as almost as good as 192, i cant tell any difference anyway.

    There's no such thing as a 128 VBR*. The -standard mp3 VBR averages around 192. Might explain why you can't tell the difference:)

    (actually it should be better than 192 so I'd get your ears cleaned if you reckon it's almost as good)

    *obviously it's not that you can't, it's that no-one bothers and it isn't in any regular encoder implementation.

    hahaha, my point was allofmp3 charge the same for a 128 vbr download as 128 cbr download and the 128 vbr is as u say possibly better than 192 so yes 10cent a song rougly in top notch music quality! and no drm!
