This behavior has been around for a while and has slowly, but progressively been getting worse. recently it’s made the site unusable.

When I go to play anything (you know, the little flash playback button) it plays the first half second or two then the flash player closes/disappears, then I have to hit play again, then it closes, I *MIGHT* get it to work if I keep hitting play over and over and over again, but it’s become futile.

This seems to be a buffering/timeout issue in the player itself. I don’t have the worlds fastest internet connection (3mbps).

I just thought you should know that the site has become consistently unusable for me, because I can’t listen to anything.

Dave — I will bring your post to the attention of our tech masters. I am sorry to hear that you have had problems with the site.

Our tech team suggests in instances such as yours, where the internet connection is not the greatest, would be to not rely on the streaming play. Just pop open the download links box, and open the mp3 into another tab. It will take a while longer, but it will work (on anything better than dial up at any rate.) Hope this helps.
