I think they look good to be honest, they stand out and say "hey why not go and buy this track you like/dislike so much".

I would vote against change here.

The Amazon and iTunes buttons below each album cover, on a song's comments page, are way too large in proportion to the rest of the imagery.

I have never had any good sounds from Octoshape. it has always stuttered and been a pain in the rear to load and keep from dropping. This was my experience from its inception, and was duly noted at the time... which brought the wrath of Servo down upon me. Which itself puts me in good company
I dumped it right away and went with FStream and have been a happy camper ever since.

   Sad, the best sound on the internet,is gone,, and if you listen carefully 128+ is also kind of doing the same thing.And Spammers,,,if I didn't have a cat and a bird to take care of,I swear, I would just kill myself !

Suggestion to deal with the recent spam infestations: code in some kind of check box on posts from new users labeled "report this as spam". This could go away after the newbie's 30th post or whatever. You could filter so that only actual logged-in users get their reports counted, but if a spammer collects say 10 reports in a day his/her/its account gets locked.

I know this could be abused, but if the "newbie box" goes away after some level of trust is established I think that addresses it.

I just tried using Octoshape again and its no longer getting buffer under-runs BUT it is "stuttering" once or twice per song. I've used Octoshape since its inception without problem but lately its been to wacked to use so back to 128/AAC for now.

I still experience this that I posted back on September 15th.

As reported, all works fine when I'm plugged into a power source. This only happens when I'm on battery power.

Trying to upload a file to the LRC - Clicking on Click here to Upload a Song only produces a blank window.

Thanks Bill. It also looks like the LRC has ground to a halt.

Sorry about the playlist quirkiness for a bit there.  Should be all better now.

That was Sue Foley.

Dang!  And I'd really like to know who is singing this "Wayward Girl" song...

Yes, something weird is happening.

It seems playlist is locked on Ray La Montagne and Neil is singing !
