Am I supposed to have some kind of programme to do that?

Splitting the files into smaller parts is one solution, and I've noticed some of the recent interviews are done that way. The sound quality on the Krugman interview is much better. MP4 (AAC format) might be a better solution, providing better sound quality in smaller files, but most people haven't yet made the free upgrade to their QuickTime plugins to be able to listen to it. The other issue I've noticed here is that the skybuilders server (which serves up the MP3s on this site) is very sluggish...it can take me 10 minutes to download an MP3 even on a fast DSL or cable connection. Normally a file of that size should take at most a minute or two to download.

Joi's passion in itself is incredible to watch. And just what does a girl have to do to get an interview with the illustrious Lyndon? hmmm? ;)

The sound quality in a couple of his inteviews has made them almost unlistenable to me. I don't know enough about recording and encoding to make any suggestions, but I hope somebody has something to offer. I hate to criticise a gift, but I have a feeling Mr. Lydon won't take offense.
