i’ve been trying to download mp3’s by artists including staind, disturbed, cold, and 12 stones - bands who have all put out defective mp3’s with loops or ones that just repeat the chorus for the full length of the song on KaZaA. so, with most of them, i cannot find the real songs (with the excpetion of disturbed, because they’re so popular, i guess). do WinMX users have this problem (or any other free file-sharing program)?
