Default Need More Sources

i found 50 versions of a song with many of them having 7-8 sources. I clicked on several and received "need more sources".
Can somebody please explain what this means and is there any way to get past it. It's hard to believe that all sources for all the 50 items under this song are all being accessed at the same time that I am trying to download. Am I confused?

Thanks, Ken

Try researching the topic. Also try browsing them. Browsing can sometimes re-activate a file to start downlding. Another tip is to stop the downld (press stop button), then reselect it from the search results. Also try to aim for files with 3 or 4 star quality. As I said in my other post to you, this is about your chances of a successful downld. You'll have more success if you aim for 3-4 star sources.

BTW I opened LW about an hour ago. I have one file downlding healthily yet I haven't done any type of search. I just opened it & left it alone. So incompletes will continue to downld sometimes if you choose good sources where possible.
