Thank you, Guest at 07:31. I will try that. I'm not trying to burn, however, just to rip and load to the library.
I did download Mediamonkey, -twice, it didn't work when from Twocows,- and although it does as Bill says, it only seems to do it with MP3s, and most of my stuff is on .WMA files, which rather defeats the intention. Now Carley is the loudest, not the softest. Nor does it seem to take unto itself all music file variants, automatically.
Perhaps it is just not as intuitive as WMP or I'm not as sympathetic as I could be. It does come with top recommendation. I'll persist with both for the time being.
