Regarding some of the concerts on the jokelben site, some of the songs are only a few seconds in length.

Is there a reason for this other than "It's just incomplete".

Sometimes the record company puts out a bunch of "false echoes" of songs, in an effort to curb or hinder illegal pirate downloading.
These songs will start out just fine... then they start repeating the same lines, or just end, or fade out.
They hope that this will frustrate the downloader enough to abandon the effort.

Ya his stuff has a quite a few corrupt shows. However if you give them a quick glance before downloading you can tell by the song lengths if the show is complete.

He still has quite a bit of good stuff there

I think that several of the shows are listed twice, one of which is screwed up and the other which is not. I don't know if that applies for them all though.

Thanks! That makes sense.
