Hi Bob (Notes) (and anyone else with a slow internet connection).

There's a potentially helpful solution for people with a slow internet connection. If when you stream audio it pauses and starts again, the solution is to first download it, and then you can play it from your desktop. Many people on the user showcase post on soundcloud.com. You can download songs from soundcloud.com using something like this http://9soundclouddownloader.com/ Just paste in the URL of the soundcloud song. And you get a mp3 download. When it downloads to your PC, you can play it on your PC at full speed and there will be no stopping and starting. This one is for soundcloud, there are likely other ones for different services. A slow "dialup" internet connection can download an mp3 song in about 3 minutes, and you can be doing other things on the internet while it downloads.



Thanks Peter,

I'll check that out.

Bob
