Seems OK now.....and another amazing playlist. Love Jens Lenkman and Schwervon!
One more technical question if anyone can help. I've got an MP3 off a website that opened up as a Quicktime player screen. It plays in iTunes, but when I tried to upload it into Boxstr it doesn't exist in itunes....any idea how to turn it into a "real" MP3 that can be loaded onto Boxstr (when I drag it onto the Desktop, it shows it as "HTTP")??....Help!
@Shane - You beat me the to the Virgins - great song. Will listen to the rest later when done with work. Don't forget to send me your noms for the Festive 'Spill.
@Japanther Try changing your i-Tunes import settings to Mp3 (preferences). Right Click on the file & you should get a convert to mp3 option in the list.
Otherwise, an upgrade to QT Pro will let you save the file from the QT player (also great for downloading Podbeans). As a last resort, a real time Audacity recording, if Audacity is able to import this type of file.
Japanther, when downloading the song, did you right/ctrl-click and choose "Open with iTunes"? If so, the song is only streaming via iTunes, but it's not in your files.
@ shane - love the Jens Lekman track (I recognised it from one of your mix-CDs). I still read the name as Jens Lehman every time and wonder why Arsenal's ex-goalkeeper is so popular in these parts.
Thanks Shoey and ejaydee......I changed the settings and used Ctrl/click (a function I didn't even know existed!!) and managed to download it as an MP3 - you're right ejaydee, iTunes was only streaming it.
Thanks again and apologies for my technological incompetence......but I HAVE come a long way; just 2 or 3 short years ago I ended up having to pay an overdue fine at the video shop 'cos I couldn't work out how to get the DVD out of the laptop!! True story!
glad you like so far EJD.. .. I do now have ten new tracks that I would have play listed too.. but getting it over and done with an hour and a half into the game.. gave me the weekend to think of my fav 3 tracks of the year.

@toffeeboy
my Jens Lekman compilation to get people into him is called 'the goalkeepers fear...'
it makes me smile... (I'm easily pleased)
I'll send you a copy at some point.. hope you are enjoying the mixes.
@japanther
I'm with you on the tech front.. each time I do anything it's a leap of faith...
the spill has been my learning process.
I'm only halfway, but that's an amazing playlist Shane!

FAILING STILL!
I keep thinking I'm done but a fourth song keeps rearing its funky head.
I've narrowed it down to:
38 tracks 2.4 hours of new tracks
it's down from 142 songs from 2008 that I love..
I either buy too much music or I'm not critical enough.
Another great list Shane. Like the Whitey track in particular - crackles & all.
