I don't officially live in the UK per se, but I did download all three albums successfully while in the UK.

I downloaded both lotus flow3r and mplsound on the opening day, stayed up all night and was glad i did. I was loving lotus flow3r so much last week, but i'm being to divert in2 mplsound more as i'd heard a large portion of lotusflow3r before the release so this could be why.

Downloaded Lotus on day 1 but took a couple of days to get the Mplsound wavs due to the problem with the file. Been fine for a few days now though.

Somebody suggested clearing your browsers temporary files might help. Which browser you using and you on PC or Mac?

after initial confusion as to the blue orb and not knowing how to access the site until the org helped me out i downloaded the 3 albums with no problems..the only thing that stumped me was having to add an extension name to the downloaded file before i was able to unzip it.

No worries. Got them all first go (except MPLSound until they fixed it)

the only thing that stumped me was having to add an extension name to the downloaded file before i was able to unzip it.


I keep seeing his mentioned. Never had to do this. Ever. All unzipped fine. Very strange

it was strange...the mplsound album was fine and all the tracks appeared but with lotus and elixir one file appeared and right clicking and trying to extract wouldn't do anything until another org member told me to add .zip to the name and i was able to unzip the file to get to the individual tracks.

Thanks all. Now just Bria's to go. File empty. Can anyone tell me - should I delete zipped folder icon from my desktop now that i have transferred MLPs and Lotus onto my ipod? Where is the best place to store the unzipped folder or should I delete these also? Thanks

It depends on how you have iTunes set up. If you have default settings and the songs are added, then you can delete the folder.

Once you've unzipped the files and extracted the songs you don't need them anymore. U can delete them.

Once I got past the puzzle (I was sleepy that morning wink ) registration went very smoothly with a UK VISA credit card. Logging in and navigation has caused me no problems. I did have to jump through a few hoops to get the downloads(downlaod and install a rar extractor, rename the php files to rar files before unzipping, then installed Firefox anyway to make sure the mplsound one came through as a zip file in the end). I went for the wav files to begin with and now all are burnt to CD and playing nicely in my CD players. cool
Just somewhere in the middle,
Not too good and not too bad.
