[Danskman]

So, taking the long flight to Germany again this weekend, and I had to buy a new discman. Get to the store and start looking at portable CD players, and notice the MP3 players. Hmmmm... extremely small size (I like that), and I don't have to pack a dozen CD's (like that too). I'm sold. I have no idea how many songs 128MB will hold, so I ask the salesperson, and he says 100's. Done deal. I get it home and start copying songs from CD's into my PC (Windows XP). Seems like approx one minute = one MB, so a four minute song is about four MB's. I was only able to fit 33 songs on the MP3 player. I go into the windows settings and see that there is a sliding scale on the "copy music" that regulates quality and file size. So I slide it all the way to the left, and copy a song, and it's about 20% the size it was before. Excellent. That should give me about 150 songs, and that's fine. Anyway, when I copy the song to the MP3 player, it won't play. Message in the MP3 player window says "Wrong file". Went to the manufacturer's website, but nada. Help? TIA.
