WARNING: MusicMatch Jukebox is smarter than you (like XP)
NOTE: The folks at MusicMatch haven't bothered responding to my email
requesting assistance with this.... My original emails were much more polite than this, but since I'm venting here and its all true, there isn't much they can do about it. Hey: MusicMatch IDIOTS What the HELL is your **** software (Jukebox basic) doing? 1. I rip my a collection of ~80 ORIGINAL CDs only to realize that 3/4 of the songs disappear!? I change the genre from Holiday to Christmas and (sometime over next three days) it vaporizes from my HD. Doesn't MusicMatch like Country? I rip 45 country CDs only to find that only the last ones ripped are still on the HD!!! (The Christmas ones were the first ripped.) 2. I add a directory of previously ripped MP3s and your **** deletes 20 % of the files!!?? What the HELL? Care to explain why your **** deletes MP3 files as it sees fit. Get you **** together, or stuff it back up your ass. |

WARNING: MusicMatch Jukebox is smarter than you (like XP)
I recently ripped my entire cd collection. Close to 200 cd. I used:
www.cdburner.com Not one snag. I got this program years ago. Absolutely no hassles. Free updates for life. Nothing I've tried comes close for ease of use, reliability, and quality of final product.

I use MMJB 8.xx and have used previous versions to rip all my CD's and not one has yet to
disappear without my personal intervention...But strange things have been known to happen with it from other's like reports..It is possible that they are maybe lurking out in an obscure folder of MMJB's creation... But I would have saved your initial comments for a follow-up if they were not helpful by a better toned 1st complaint...you certainly did not get into their good graces..last time I came close to such a note as that was to the owner of a game site I frequent and got my butt banned until I appologized for being too terse in my opening volleys of comments about the operation of the site(I did get unbanned after suffering a week)... |

And 7 GB after all 80 were ripped over the next few days. That told me something was up. If the files existed on your hard drive in a known location, when viewed with Windows Explorer, and yet later vanished, what leads you to assume that your ripping software (MusicMatch) had anything to do with it? For instance, some viruses/worms (for example, VBS/Gorum.gen@MM) attempt to delete mp3 files from the hard drive. My point is that there may be entirely something else at fault aside from MusicMatch. Unless you can specifically identify a reason to implicate MusicMatch, I would seriously recommend that you explore some other possibilities- you may have more problems on your system than you realize.

On Wed, 24 Dec 2003 07:31:44 -0800, "[ Doc Jeff ]"
was understood to have stated the following: I've seen this behavior from MMJ before but only with illegitimate copies (i.e. warez) or invalid serial/reg codes. Not saying that you are using such a copy only showing what I've seen personally. If they were using an illegitimate copy, it might explain why no response has been forthcoming. |

The voice of "Roy Jensen" drifted in on the cyber-winds,
from the sea of virtual chaos... NOTE: The folks at MusicMatch haven't bothered responding to my email requesting assistance with this.... My original emails were much more polite than this, but since I'm venting here and its all true, there isn't much they can do about it. snip Before you continue Ranting: - Open Windows Search program - Set it to "Drive C:" (or "My PC" if you have more partitions) - search for "*.MP3" There's a good chance the files are still around, but they've migrated to some other folder (read: ripe "accidentally" to). This is often the case with multi-user systems, or OSes with multiple "Document" folders. On this 98me system there are 4 accounts set up, each with their own preferences and storage folders. These are stored (read: buried) under "C:\\Windows\Profiles\{Username}\My Documents\". This can be confusing when one of "Mother's Programs" (read: any newbie) loses where it is and defaults to the Root... Which is followed shortly by "Where did all my files go?" when she opens "C:\\My Documents\" by mistake. }:8P -- Maxwell C.G. Pollare, a "small god" in his own mind... |

WARNING: MusicMatch Jukebox is smarter than you (like XP)
I also personally ripped my entire CD collection of over 350 CDs using
MusicMatch without a hitch not related to pilot error. There is one sort of bug in MM, and it is possible this is what has hit the original poster. I lost over 700 songs (my best ones!) this way. It requires a mistake from the user, but it is overly easy to make, IMHO. When MM rips a song from a CD, it is placed in the library and selected just as if the user had held down the Ctrl key and clicked on the selection. Thus, any previously selcted titles remian selected, whether the user realizes it, or not. In my case, I had the library sorted by Preference. This works very well when ripping new songs, because all new selections are placed in Miscellaneous (which I keep otherwise empty). I had authored a mixed data / music CD for a slideshow I produce, and I wanted to rip the music back off the mixed mode CD, rather than having to go through the tediom of creating the audio again. The problem was, MM couldn't properly rip the music. It showed the correct times, but the rip was one selection off. Instead of getting the music, it was ripping the data (a horrrible sound, I can tell you!). Thus, I right clicked on the track and selected "Remove Tracks" with "Also delete the selected file(s) from my computer" checked. I didn't realize the "Excellent" preference list was also highlighted. Bang! The bad file and "Excellent" both disappeared from my hard drive. I had lost over 700 of my favorite songs! Fortunately, the songs themselves were all still available on my Nomad Jukebox. They weren't sorted by preference, though, so I had to copy over 1700 songs back from the Jukebox, move them back to the right directory and then delete all the duplicates. Of course, I also wound up with 700 broken links, which I had to repair. It took over 4 days. "William C." wrote in message ... I recently ripped my entire cd collection. Close to 200 cd.

My original emails were much more polite than this, but since I'm venting here and its all true, there isn't much they can do about it. It doesn't help to be impolite here, either. 1. I rip my a collection of ~80 ORIGINAL CDs only to realize that 3/4 of the songs disappear!? I change the genre from Holiday to Christmas and (sometime over next three days) it vaporizes from my HD. Doesn't MusicMatch like Country? I rip 45 country CDs only to find that only the last ones ripped are still on the HD!!! (The Christmas ones were the first ripped.) You are not providing enough detail. What, exactly are you dong in MM when the files disappear? If it is happening when MM is not in use, then it isn't MM that is the culprit. Are you sure it is the file which is disappearing, or is it just the track listing? Or conversely, is the listing still there, but the file gone? If the latter, then it is almost certainly not MM causing the problem. You need to provide a full detail of the symptoms surrounding the problem. If this is all you know of the symptoms, then you need to pay a great del more attention to the problem and document it in a thorough fashion, or else no one, either at Music Match or in this forum, will be able to help you. 2. I add a directory of previously ripped MP3s and your **** deletes 20 % of the files!!?? What the HELL? What do you mean "add a directory"? There is no direct provision in MM for manually adding a directory to the hard drive. Are you adding all the songs in an existing directory to a playlist or library? MM does not modify files when adding them to a playlist or library. You can easily prove this for yourself. Set a file not in your playlist or library to Read Only and try adding it to the listing. It will do so without a hitch. If you try deleting the track, however, it will remove it from the library, but will pop up a dialog saying "Could not delete xxxxx This file is read only... The file will remain on your computer but the entry will be deleted from yur library." By default, MM will automatically add a directory stucture based on the artist name and album name if they are available, but it should never delete any files except by your command. AFAIK, there is no provision for deleting directories, at all. Again, try the procedure again, but set the files to read-only prior to doing whatever it is you are doing in Music Match. If the OS complains about read-only access, thne you know when it is happening and we can proceed from there. If this pops up later, when MM is not running, then again, you know MM is not the culprit. Care to explain why your **** deletes MP3 files as it sees fit. Exactly what algorithm do you think they are using to delete files? Get you **** together, or stuff it back up your ass. |

No, the problems are not my own fault. Until today, I knew no more than what I wrote in the original email. HOWEVER. Today, I ripped 5 CDs. Opened explorer, searched the temp folder for mp3s and found 54. Exactly what I expected. ALT-TAB'd to MusicMatch CRAP and exited the program. Back in explorer, 12 files remained. 12 files!!!

In fact, absolutely every single time that I've tried to file a tech support request, their email is "down." I've tried it on Windows 98, 98se, and XP. IMHO, it sounds like an AM radio in a broken down '56 Dodge station wagon. I have spent days and days and days just trying to get it to work, period. If you have it and it works great, congratulations! (Otherwise, there's no use in wasting time trying to put lipstick on a pig.) (In contrast, iTunes installed perfectly in minutes, and Winamp has never failed me.......everything I try has worked fine, except MusicMatch.) I rip my own CD's at 20+x at 320 vbr and run them through Dolby and 20-bands of EQ. The result sounds as good as the original CD, if not better. ~Jim~ If you need to fill some holes in your collection or your software, email me at the return address. Just remove the 8888.

Until today, I knew no more than what I wrote in the original email. HOWEVER. Today, I ripped 5 CDs. Opened explorer, searched the temp folder for mp3s and found 54. Exactly what I expected. ALT-TAB'd to MusicMatch CRAP and exited the program. Back in explorer, 12 files remained. 12 files!!! MUSICMATCH IS CRAP. "Ionizer" wrote in message ...

Could careless how fast it is, but accuracy and reproduction quality is my
guideline...besides, I have never seen disappearing files happen in MMJB in 4 years of use, other than thru manual sutpidity of deletion.. |

om... MUSICMATCH IS CRAP. Do yourself a huge favor and use CDEX www.cdex.n3.net or EAC instead. |

AND have you tried uninstalling MusicMatch ****?
The entry in ADD/Remove Programs generates nothing but ERRORS!!! One has to manually run 'unmatch****.exe' from the install directory. Like I said, their software is ----.

WARNING: MusicMatch Jukebox is smarter than you (like XP)
Been using MusicMatch for about a year now with no problems but I
don't use it to burn. I use it for the JukeBox and ID tag editing which accesses the AMG.com site. Tech support is fine other than I usually send two messages about incorrect album/CD info..one to each site. As for missing MP3s...never happens. The only bitch I have is that when you encounter incorrect ID tag info on a 'read only' file and try to change it you can't. You first have to go back and change the properties first. I keep all the songs as 'read only' so I don't move instead of copy. I don't use an email program such as Outlook Express to read the newsgroups so why would I use a JukeBox program to burn a CD?

I use it to listen and to burn, and have never had a problem. The burning program in fact was a hell of a lot more stable than Roxio's EZCDC at the time (and still is, best I can tell). Not sure what the original poster's beef was, but he seems to be long gone.

If MMJ is so good, then why do you need to emai tech support As for missing MP3s...never happens. The only bitch I have is that when you encounter incorrect ID tag info on a 'read only' file and try to change it you can't. You first have to go back and change the properties first. I keep all the songs as 'read only' so I don't move instead of copy. And the program is doing exactly what it should be doing. Read Only means exactly that. I would be pretty ****ed off if one of my kids or grandkids altered one of my read only files. I don't use an email program such as Outlook Express to read the newsgroups so why would I use a JukeBox program to burn a CD? Perhaps you should. OE has not been purely an email program for a long time, any more than MMJ has been purely a Jukebox program. -- Cheers Oldus Fartus |

WARNING: MusicMatch Jukebox is smarter than you (like XP)
musicmatch jukebox 10 ****es me off, i have over 25.000 mp3's, when i add
them to the library there is no way of cancelling it once the move has started, i even turned off musicmatch, renamed the directory my mp3's were stored at, restarted, and it still found them and carried on moving them. Once they're stored in the library there is no way of removing them, because they have removed the 'clear library option'. does anyone know how to remove all of the library at once. I used to use musicmatch 7.5 which is great. why try and fix something that's not broke. |
