Message:	: Those "metallic" sounds are what some people refer to as MP3 compression relics. What that means is they are sounds that are created in MP3's because a crappy encoder was used to make the MP3, or the MP3 was transcoded from some other not-so-perfect compressed file format. : Basically, they can't be reomoved without also further affecting the sound quality of the already annoying MP3 files. : If I were you, I'd get rid of the bad MP3's and find better copies (typically you can do this by just getting MP3's at higher bitrates, but there can be bad ones at any bitrate to tell you the truth). : If you made these MP3's yourself from CD's rather than downloading them off the net, then my suggestion is that you recopy the CD's, this time with a better MP3 encoder. : My guess is that if you made them youself, you made these MP3's with either RealOne or MusicMatch? : Exact Audio Copy or CDex, along with the Lame encoder, will give you substantially better MP3's. : <a href="http://www.exactaudiocopy.de/" target="_blank">Exact Audio Copy homepage</a> : <a href="http://www.cdex.n3.net/" target="_blank">CDex homepage</a> : <a href="http://mitiok.free.fr/" target="_blank">Lame homepage</a> : I host a copy of CDex with Lame already set up in it <a href="http://www16.brinkster.com/napsterneoreneg/Misc/Misc.htm" target="_blank">here</a>. : Happy ripping!
