Ok. I've tried several times now to download a couple of audio files that come up as 128-bit or even higher. But nevertheless, they always show up on my system as 32-bit only once they are downloaded (and having a total runtime of like 17-minutes or so....they are only 4 minute or so files.) WHY??? I've done others successfully....it's just these two and no matter what sources I select, I get the same outcome.

I greatly appreciate your help.

Those are fakes. Have a look at the thread below:wink:

Keep searching, vary your search terms - look for artist or album rather than song title & try the All Types search too. Stay away from files with heaps of sources, try going for a file with 10 sources or less or even a file with a single modem source.
