hey! how goes it? i'm on dial-up (not by choice) and the only problem i seem to be having, other than download speed, is that i have an ever growing list of songs that are "awaiting sorces". it doesn't seem to matter what i do, disconnect, reconnect, shut down or restart. they will not connect at all or reconnect. some are at varying %'s of download. so they did connect at one time or another. i want to add these songs to my library but... how can i can someone please help me deminish my list??

Your songs can only download if the sources are online. Usually, 'awaiting sources' means that whoever you were downloading from has gone offline or has no upload slots free. There's a bit of info here

Most of the time, you're better off just to start a new search. It's always going to be slow for you with dial up so try to download from multiple hosts & those with 4 or 3 stars

If you have a really rare song that you desperately want to finish downloading, just keep trying at different times of day. For the rest, just search again. Try the All Types search, that can sometimes give really different results than just an Audio search.
