Preview lengths - 05-23-2008, 03:22 PM

Hello Everyone!

I feel like I'm missing something here. After logging into soundbox, the song previews only last 30 secs or so - I haven't really timed it, but it isn't the whole song. Is that typical or am I missing something? I like to hear most of the song before deciding to buy usually.

Thanks,
C

Or, if you find the song/album on alltunes, you can usually listen it all, then go somewhere else and buy it.

Heh, I really can't believe I didn't think of that... I'll just preview on my mp3sparks account.

Sometime I just need a slight slap to the head to get the gears moving.

Thanks,
