sounds like is is happening a bit

win xp SP2
not working using media player, winamp, or media player classic.
It says it requires codecs.  I live in australia... maybe we dont use the same mp3 codecs here...?

Which song is it?

I could try to download it myself. I can't really brag about beinga computer genius, but I've never heard of codecs for mp3s before.

just dont work.  so it works for everyone else? 
it sucks cause i love some of these songs.. but i can only listen on the site.

Downloading the songs I have the same problem... Also I have noticed a few of the songs arent playing in the discussion thread either.. Mine for instance did not play, and at least 3 others so far are the same...

Ok, I'll check it out.

eg. http://forum.bandamp.com/Audio_Review/557.html
seem not to work at all.  click on the wimpy player... nothing
click download.... bandamp home page.

something's wrong...

an example of my trouble with other songs is, just randomly, though it happens to all mp3's ive tried eg. http://forum.bandamp.com/Audio_Review/380.html

I can listen in wimpy and i can download them.  they download fine.
but when i go to play them... nothing.  some error.  tried different players, different computers.  nothing.
try to open the file in a wav editing program.  nothing but static.

i'm stuck....

http://forum.bandamp.com/Audio_Review/551.html  That is my song, I have tried to re-upload it 3 times and it will not play no matter..I ended up putting a link to my own web page for it... Not that my song is great.. it sucks... but I thought you may want to take a look some really good songs could get overlooked because of this problem....   

I can listen to it on the web site, but I can't download it using the download button; it just redirects me to the main page.

Aye; I didn't need to download anything, but it's handy to know that was the problem.
