    unless im missing something i’m only getting a 30 sec low quality preview of the song.. im logged in and all… was going to try and record it and see what quality it was and then see if there were any automated progrmas for doing this.

    I didn’t get 30s sample, but it still sounds awful. Like 32k awful. Why not use Rhapsody.com instead? They have free high-quality music.

    Hey can you record it useing something like greese monkey?

  • Justin

    @Simon, I wouldn’t even bother if the quality is less than subordinate.
