I tried your mp3 website, but can't find a STOP button to turn the music off. The guitar feature selection, "Leyenda" plays only the first bar, then stops, then plays the same bar again, ad infinitum.
The "Play All Selections" plays in low-fi, since I have only a 56k dial-up connection. Takes about 30 secs to buffer (I don't want
to download). While I think it's cool to have a site of your music
preferences, the selections don't turn me on, especially in low fi,
as my computer has a nice 3-speaker HK sound system.
I made the mistake of telling my daughter about mp3 when it first came out, and she went hog wild, uploading and downloading hundreds
of albums simultaneously that will take several lifetimes to listen
to, and bloats the hard drive of the computer. Besides, she's away at college, so nobody listens.

Hell I can't even find the "Start" button to turn the music on! I'm too busy dealing with pop-ups all over the place. Even when I hit "play" a pop-up window comes up and I have to deal with closing it. I have always hated MP3.com with a passion. Very poorly designed site. Instead they should just offer direct downloads. Nothing is worse than streaming audio or video (or both). If they do offer direct downloads, then the web site is too much of a jumbled mess for me to find it.

Thats funny, I don't have any problems with it.

Update:I tried the link again and found the small "download" link. It placed a pop-under beneath my browser which I had to close. Then it wanted to know if I was a boy or a girl and I think some other information before I could download. I of course did not feel like wasting my time.
Yes, this is a crusade against MP3.com, not against the artists whose work is there.

Try right clicking on on the download link and select "save target as"
Then you could avoid all the hassle.
Also check out Flowers to Hide on mp3.com
My friend is the lead guitarist as well as lead singer.
There are only two songs on there (3 if you count the shortened version of SUNDAR YATRA) and 15 MINUTES is the only one of the two they actually play.
Steve actually recorded the tracks with some friends from SLOVAK GIRL (also on mp3.com) before he had a band.
If you live in Houston or Austin (the only two cities they;ve ever played) keep an eye out for them.

If I saved on the link by right clicking I'd just end up saving the HTML file that the link clicks to.

That has happened to me before as well, but only on certain tracks, and I dont know why. And this was after I gave them the info they wanted and everything.
I have no trouble doing this with John's page or the FLOWERS TO HIDE page.

I have no control over this part of the site.
