It's good to have cargo. Makes us a target for every other scavenger out there, though, but sometimes that's fun too.

Buffista Music II: Wrath of Chaka Khan  

There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

no, I don't mean on CD players, the burning part I have figured out for settings.

I have ripped all my CDs using a RealOne player on my computer, but now I realize that in order to download music from RealOne it is a monthly subscription charge, balh blah blah. So I had downloaded 2 songs using my MusicMatch/Dell Jukebox player. I can get those downloads to play on the RealOne, but it can't burn them.

Hmm. What kind of file are they?

I look more rad than Lutheranism

msbelle, even if you downloaded them as WMA, you might be able to convert them to mp3 in RealOne. I use iTunes, and it can convert songs to mp3, so maybe RealOne can, too.

Steph. Imay be able to, but right now I can get it to. I think I am gonna just use iTunes. It turns out that MusicMatch will NOT download things in MP3 format. Bastards.

Alternately msbelle, you could burn those songs some other way with another program, and then reupload them as mp3 files.

msbelle, what format does Musicmatch download files in? In my version of Musicmatch, you can convert from .wav to mp3.

That's what I was going to suggest. I think that the Windows Media Player will burn audio CDs from WMA files.

Uncertainty could be our guiding light.

Butting into the techical discussion to answer the musical question:

The song I smacked myself on the forehead for forgetting is "The Ground Beneath Her Feet" by U2. 'Twas not only written for a movie (The Million Dollar Hotel, which I suspect only diehard U2 fans saw), but the title and lyrics were taken directly from the Rushdie book of the same name.

Love that song. Hate self now.
