Well, the linked file had a .WAV extension before Rob changed it. Errr... oops. Guess should have listened closer to that MP3, especially with that shelf of anime DVDs next to me... np: Jonas Bering - Melanie (Kompakt Total 7 (Disc 2))

Yes, DirectShow (which, in this case, is what's used by Windows Media Player) simply tries to open it with just about any codec you have installed on your system until one of them succeeds. Other players just look at the file extension and use what would be appropriate. But still, if the software you used to encode it to MP3 saved it with a WAV extension I'd have a nice, long talk with it and convince it to stop doing that - "Bad software, baaad... Sit. Fetch. Save as MP3." np: Michael Fakesch - Diesehle (Marion)

Rob, for the love of $DOG and all that is Holly, could you please, please, pretty please with a cherry^wJelly Bean on top publish MP3 files with an actual MP3 extension? Renaming them to WAV doesn't automagically turn them into, well, WAV files - and foobar2000 foobarfs all over it's log that what's supposed to be a WAV file actually totally massively isn't... Just my .02 EYPO... np: Michael Fakesch - On The Floor (DOS)
