I have just joined MySpace and many folk musicians and bands have become my friends. Most of the musicians have samples of their songs on their home or profile page. On all of them I can not get the songs to play without interruption. It will play for 3 to 5 seconds and then stop for about 10 seconds and then resume. The process keeps repeating itself throughout the song. I have a dial-up connection to the internet. On other websites I also get a buffering problem, but once the song has been downloaded the first time it will play un-interrupted on all succeeding attempts with WMP. Not so on MySpace. The song is constantly interrupted even on the second and third attempts. What is so differet about this MySpace player, "StandAl" that causes this to happen. SOL ZELLER
