Songs download - preview works - but then don't work later ?

[mikeallenhelp]

I am able to download the songs, and I can preview them, but then when I move them into a windows media player playlist, some of them don't work ? Often, I will delete them and then download them again and sometimes they work the next time and sometimes they don't. This just started happening recently.

You know don't you that a playlist is simply a reference to the songs. It's a link to them. But if you move the original file's location then the link won't work b/c it can't find the file at its original location.

Greetings mikeallenhelp

I have had the same thing happent to me. What I realised is that the songs that wouldn't play in WMP, were m4a file types not mp3. Not sure why WMP wouldn't play them for sure, but when I checked to make sure it was mp3 that I was d/ling they worked fine.

There are other players out there that don't seem to have a problem with the m4a file format. You can "google" for them. Several are free.

You can also do a search(upper right) for - music quality -

That will also give you some insight on what to look for.
