Please note: MP3s are only kept online for a short time, and if this entry is from more than a couple of weeks ago, the music probably won't be available to download any more.

yikes

Hmm... it looks like sometimes when you download one of these mp3s, it cuts short - ie, it only grabs the first 2/3 of the track. The full-length files are on the servers: anyone know why peoples' browsers (including mine) might not be cooperating? (Techies: we need your help!)

update: the tracks seem to load fine if you play them in-browser (rather than saving the link), but this is no solution...

With Safari (which has a really bad download manager), i find that it sometimes works better if you open the track and load it in the browser, and then save as after it's loaded.
