My bad, I hadn't noticed (despite how obvious it was) that the other files had
the bit rate listed in the title/subject. Of course that's what makes the
difference. I'm fine with the smaller files, because for me at least, simple
spoken radio like this sounds fine even at 32K. Music, I'd need a lot more, but
not talk. I also like saving the bandwidth. :)
Thanks for all the help.
