Yes, I am using the LW player, but that is not the problem. I hear these sounds as I preview them so I cancel right away. I listen to jazz and have successfully downloaded over 1500 songs. I go with only 4 star, high bitrate songs that look like they are not corrupted. From this weeks top Jazz/Fusion chart only three of the top 12 songs were successfully downloaded. Older songs are not a problem, it seems like it's only newer ones.
