i defragmented my drive and a bunch of my mp3s now have skips.... i'm pretty sure it must've been the defragmenting that ruined them, cause i never move my mp3s around or anything.. has anyone had the same problem??? its pissing me off... i'm gonna have to rip some cds over again, and download the damaged tracks over again...

=(

well i figured since defrag picks up your files and shuffles them around, it must've been defrag that screwed the files up.... i could be wrong...

straight up....from time to time an mp3 of mine will skip but it goes away the next time i play it usually. it can be annoying but whatever. no technology is perfect. we humans designed it afterall.

um defrag moves whole files,it splits them up and scatters them which would be fragmenting it, not defragmenting it

That's what I thought.
I experienced that problem a few times and a simple reboot fixed it.
