Hello Joshua and list, I tried to listen to the file that I was having trouble with, using voice dream. The file seemed just fine. It blade straight through, with no problems. So thank you for recommending this. I do appreciate it. I was wondering though, why would I want to zip a single MP3 file, when putting it into dropbox? Is there a reason for this? Why couldn’t I just leave the MP3 as it is? I could see the reason to zip up a whole show.
