ALBW decoding - a puzzlement
This has me completely stuffed. I was highly pleased to complete a download of a recently released album via i-mesh, which was posted as albw.mp3. So now I've wasted better part of two hours trying to decode the darned thing. Tried first in ALBW Extractor, which said "not a valid albw file", so went searching on Google, and found albw-fix - same response as soon as I'd installed that!
Then I went to Source Forge and got their alba proggy, and whaddya know, it also said "not a valid albw file". The strange thing is, the thing has a file extension of.mp3 following the albw designation, and it plays OK (as a continuous thing) but no track ids. But why in hell would anybody encode an album in a manner that rendered it undecodable - because neither they nor their friends would be able to break it up into tracks for recording after downloading? Doesn't make sense, so.o.o.o. - is there a way to decode an album encoded as albw.mp3? If so, I should be mighty glad to hear about it (with urls etc.). Thanks, everybody!
