You may not have noticed that that file 3462kb does not show a bitrate!
Mp3 files should have a bit rate.
yup Mark II...

And they do...

But, and here is where your comment does not obtain...

The display of a bitrate for any given file is totally dependent on the 'compatibility' of the client(s)...
(And, of course, the file being one that actually can have a bit rate to be quoted !)

You must not confuse the lack of a display of bitrate, within the GUI display of various Gnutella Network clients, as being synonomous with a bad or corrupt file...

Any idiot can prove, very quickly, what specific file sizes to avoid...
How ?
Do a search for your granny's name spelled backwards !
Anything !
or, one of my favourites...
"Britney's Historical Guide To Cosmology and Fusion Reaction Tokamaks"

Try it !

But, please do not confuse 'No bitrate info' with 'bad files', OK ?
