I have elected to share my music in FLAC format (mostly because what I have is lossless) but some Windows users are have trouble downloading it. I suggested using something like 7-zip to extract the files, and then "something else" to convert to another format. I could not be more specific because I am on a Mac. Here is what someone wrote me recently (Jan 2, 2013):
I am having to give up as I am unable to get the file to transfer properly. I downloaded WinZip to open the FLAC archive and they appear nicely in track order but with "0" bytes in each. I uploaded AVS Audio converter to change FLAC to mp3 or WAV but to no avail. It is as if AVS does not recognize that these files have anything in them - if indeed they do!! I'm not as up to speed as you are so at this point I will graciously give in and retire hurt! It would have been far easier if somebody had uploaded this excellent soundtrack as WAV in the first place. Ah well.
Can some of you wise PC users help out? Whatever info you can provide I'll save and share with him (and others who contact me about the same problem). As a Newbie, he did not seem willing to ask for help himself.
Thanks!
