Sorry. I screwed up. Again.

Anyway...

I've downloaded music from this place (I have even paid the $25 subscription fee) and yet, the music seems to have a drop dead date. After awhile, the it just doesn't play any more. I guess if I want to hear the same piece again, I have to download 'em again.

I don't know if the limit is in time or number of plays. Anyone have the inside scoop on this earth shaking matter?

It's is a weird site. I've looked and looked and can't find a "Contact Us". (But then, I could miss a barn door from 6 paces.)

Some of the stuff there is embarrassingly bad, but some is rather good. If you care to, you can take the free membership at this site like I did for a month or so before succumbing to the lure of better quality recordings and for my purposes virtually unlimited downloads.

You can't just double click and download. You must right click, select "Save as..." and go from there.
