Here's what he says:

  The first 20% transfers really fast and then it appears to go to 
  the end.
  
  When I open the file it has 47-48 seconds of music and that's it.  
  I tried it three different ways about 20 times with the same 
  result.  I did clear the cache, etc.

He's using MSIE 6 on WinXP SP2.
