    I recently downloaded about 2gb worth of music from a torrent site. And on Saturday nite, I was moving the music around into folders setting it up the way I wanted it, and somehow managed to delete ALL the music (yes, I had been drinking ;) it was Saturday nite!! ). Anyhow, I recovered about 85% of the music, but none of it will play with WMP. I get an error saying the extension is correct but the file was compressed using an unrecognized codec or a message saying that the extension doesn't match the file type or that the file may be corrupt. I've tried using the MP3 repair tool (downloaded from here...) and it said the files were repaired but they still don't play. I didn't try to play any of the music before I unintentionally deleted it so I don't know if it was like this from the start, or if the 'corruption' happened during the deletion/recovery process... Any help/tips/suggestions will be appreciated... THANX!!!

    PS- I'd rather not have to download all this music again, as I did it thru a torrent site, and it took about 28hrs!!!!
