    which versions of each are you playing with? qt pro?



    what does the qt info window say about the mp3

    iTunes v4.0.1 (117) Quicktime 6.3 (not pro)



    Quicktime says:

    MPEG Layer -3 Audio, Stereo, 44.1 khz 16 bits

    Data rate: 19.0 K bytes/sec



    it won't play in Audion either. weird



    i opened it in Peak LE and it won't let me save as mp3, granted i'm not that familar with this program yet
