Note the above problem, if Vista, Windows 7 or Linux/Ubuntu / Unix is not a function of the code in Band in a Box, it is the system behaving as expected. And, in order to have 'clean' code, anything in the file that causes the system to hang in jukebox due to a permission is something that most users would never encounter. Of course in anticipation of future file permission issues the best coding in jukebox would be an exception error to ignore the file, warn the user of an issue and move onwards not messing with the software.

On the other hand it's bad practice, and if you turned the page expecting Stars and Stripes for Ever and got the Venezuelan National Anthem then......oh well you get the painted portrait.
