[Dixielandjazz] Harlem .. new CD

[David Richoux]

Dan and all other Mac OS folks,

I have a little  program called Flip4mac installed that automatically  
translates Windoze files into Mac compatible files - I guess that is  
why I had no obvious problem with the Harlem clips. I thought it was  
only for video formats but I now see that it also works on some audio  
formats.

http://www.flip4mac.com/wmv.htm is the site and there are various  
versions available.

There is also a shareware program called Soundconverter that works  
for a lot (but not all) sound files. It seems to have a lot of  
trouble with some RealPlayer Audio files.

I am not a guru for this conversion stuff - I have enough problems  
converting graphic and CADD files for my day job!
