Well, glad to hear you're still hangin' in their with the technology.
I['m 61, and have been fortunate to have been using a PC for the last
22 years. I'm a Total Recorder man myself, so shouldn't have any
trouble on that front. I just thought that the ads might be contained
in other files connected with the program independent of the main
file, so thought that might cause other problems, but if not, then
that works for me <smile>. Actually the program looks kind of
interesting and exciting to mess around with. Lots of interesting and
hopefully useful features.
I'll let ya know how it goes as soon as I get the chance to give it a go.
Take care,
Larry

Hello Larry:
Well, I am 71 years old, blind and using a screen reader, conservative
about what I put in my computer, but SONGR is a program I cannot due
without. If the MP3 file has unwanted stuff in it, you could always edit
it. For editing audio, I use Gold Wave, which is very accessible and easy
to use.
Regards,
Humberto

Thanks Humberto. I guess I'm just not quite as young and brash as I
used to be when it comes to the health of my only computer <smile>.
I'll definitely give this one a try, and hopefully it will actually
convert those things I want converted. I mean, I can't imagine how it
would convert these documentaries with ads placed some what
haphazardly through the presentation, but we'll see. If it wont do
those, then I will be grateful for anything else it can handle.
Thanks again,
Larry
