How would they even know? They're two completely separate accounts.

...yea - I don't know. Maybe they'll make it so that I can't switch accounts again? So I'd be 'locked in' on one account?

Only thing I can figure, is if it's because I'm using the same laptop (and the same iTunes application)...

Maybe I'll try and re-download it from someone else's computer, while signed into my other account.

Really enjoying all the music on the album. Works great as a stand alone piece for repeat listening for years to come. Will buy in CD form, too, when it comes out.

For some reason my file for 'Rez' will only play on my laptop and not on my MP3 player. Never had that happen. All other files work fine for me. Thoughts? I rarely buy stuff from iTunes, not sure where to start.

Thanks, Jason

This is an audience shot of the "And I will kiss" sequence, just on the telly you can't realise how much is going on! And all those people moving more or less in sync with the music. Must have been a hell of a job to coordinate this stuff.

And get well soon Rick!

Amazing that LOCOG let the cover image be released, given that it's the cauldron 'surprise'...

@Troy McClure. Check the finer details of the file. I had a problem with some of my mp3 files but I discovered when checking the file info in a tag program that the mp3's were actually mp2's. I had to convert the files to mp3 so they would play on my preferred player. However the quality really suffers when converting from one lossy format to another.

that's odd. it should stay exactly the same.
unless you're going from a higher bitrate to a lower one.

if you go from mp2->uncompressed or wav -> mp3
at the same bitrate. it should be the same quality.

later
