I typed in dd if=parasites-1.mp3 of=parasites-1a.mp3 bs=1024 count=2500 but the file is unreadable now. I get an error on the players when I try to play.

For example: dd if=song.mp3 of=truncated_song.mp3 bs=1024 count=1000 This will keep only the first megabyte of the song. Adjust the "count" variable accordingly. If your song weights say 5MB, use count=2500 , and so on. -- Vince </pre> </blockquote> </body> </html>
