Did you buy these from itunes or are they unprotected?

They are unprotected, and i do not know they were encoded with. Some of the songs is reported as 128 kb/s some at 219 kb/s. Many of those who doesn't work does not get properly recognised by windows/wmp, they play without any problems, but the progress bar doesn't move because windows/wmp does not know how long the song lasts.

Opening any of the bad songs on my pre, makes both music players crash. The program does not freese, but i cannot play any of the other working songs.

The problem with the songs is new(both in wmp and on my pre), i have used these songs for years without problems.

I just tested with songbird 1.8, and every song works perfectly, duration and progressbar works! Strange!
