and downloaded the fucking album only to get this:

Windows Media Player cannot play the file. The Player might not support the file type or might not support the codec that was used to compress the file.

Can you go to the folder and see the individual MP3s? Got Winamp? Play it in winamp. Was it a .rar file by any chance?
You do know you have to extract the files first, right?

[G.I.Jim]

Damn Dan! Are you on Dial-up too? Shit, just instal I-Tunes and voila! You're going to need I-Tunes someday anyways, to buy my album.

You may have to re-install the newest version of Windows Media player since your current Media Player possibly can't see the drivers.

Or like someone else said, play it in a different media selection like winamp.

Maybe your Windows Media player needs to be updated, which is easy enough.

You forget trav, dan is running on windows 98

[Gideon]

Mine worked just fine with Windows Media Player.

[Rick]

Mine worked just fine with Windows Media Player.

Mine too. M4a files.

Yeah, he probably has an older version of Windows Media player that doesn't support the filing format. He could either contact the file distributor or uninstall it (through Add/Remove Programs or Program Features) and then re-install an updated version of WMP.

[Gideon]

He probably just forgot to extract the files.
I can't believe his media player's outdated. How else does he watch his porn?

[Don]

MP3s in zipfile is probably the best solution here.

[steveo777]

How ya coming there, Mr. techie?

A) I don't have iTunes, Sean. That's for fags.

Open the folder where you downloaded it to, take a screenshot and post it here.
I want to see what your files look like. If you downloaded rar file you need Winrar to
extract, same as unzipping a winzip file, sort of. You are fucked until you do this.
No version of media player is gonna work on those. Does the file end with .rar?

You think he's ready for that?

There's a backup plan in place for nontechies who don't want to deal with apple formats or winrar. The wheels are rolling here.

steve-o may be correct. When you saved the file, what did that file save under as its extension? If it was say "Eclipse.rar" file then you would need the Winrar software for it to run since Windows Media Player doesn't support a Winrar file.
