Everytime I try to register it reads that that they cannot accept any new users.
Should I just keep trying from time to time???
Thanks! |

they have a limit of 100,000 users. the numbers will go up and down several times a day as inactive accounts get deleted and new members register.
its basically a case of keep trying. You'll get in pretty soon |

what os are you using...
if window$ - then use foobar2000 to play the files on your computer, or the flac frontend to change them to WAV, and then burn audio CDs to listen to with your home stereo or hi-fi |

Great! I downloaded the foobar2000 and was able to play the songs. I also downloaded the flac frontend. From there how do I go about converting them to WAV so I can burn to disc???
Thanks alot for all the help!!!! |

The program i downloaded to convert FLAC to WAV works like this: You right click the FLAC file icon and it will give you a number of options, one of them is "convert to". click on that and it will give you the option to convert to WAV.
I dunno if thats how the frontend thing works, though..

No
I'd imagine you'd need a few months of inactivity before that happened |

you only really need to convert shn files to wav files, before you can burn them..do that by downloading the mkw compression tool ( http://www.etree.org/mkw.html#download )
Once you have the flac frontend and foobar2000 downloaded, you should be able to transfer flac files (and the wav files you have converted from shn) straight to CDR using burnatonce (see www.burnatonce.com for the free download)

okay I downloaded all the stuff so I'm pretty good for now. When using EZ should I keep the settings on automatic or use dsl/cable fast? I just started using COX high speed internet Down: 4 Mbps Up: 512 Kpbs
Should I change anything in the preferences? |

Thanks a lot too, I think I'm getting a little bit more computer savvy with each Stones tour. In 2012 I'll probably be a genius!  |

they work for me...
anyway - you either need to play the file in a media player, like you would mp3 files, or you burn an audio cd and listen via your regular cd player... |
