To get categorical on this, you will not be able to successfully join the two mp3s without decoding/recoding them. This is one of those unfortunate facts of life, and rallying against it is just going to cause more pain. Pain for you, because you're not able to get what you want, and pain for those dealing with you, beacuse they can't give you what you want. If you do hear of some program that claims to join two mp3s, it'll just be doing the decode/join/recode on them. Your best bet is to decode them yourself. That way you can use the best decoder that's out there and ensure the greatest level of quality remains in what you're doing. -- Paul Wilkins
