I've converted them to mp3 on my disk, but they're too big to upload to the Web host (and anyway if everyone could download the lot they wouldn't have to buy the CD). Is there a way to create a version of each song that fades out after, say, half a minute? Or perhaps resample them at a lower bit-rate? I've searched the package list and google, but with no luck so far. Thanks in advance. -- Rgds Peter
