My girlfriend wanted to move some of her songs from her computer to her laptop. I told her I'd do it, all I needed was a cd.
Her and her brother then told me that they could only fit 12 or so songs on a cd, how was I gonna fit over a hundred?
I told them that I'd be burning them as MP3s instead of WAVs... and then it went downhill.
Her brother seemed to think that it was impossible to have the files smaller, that he could put 100 WAVs on a cd, and that the files would recompress back to MP3 when they were ripped to a computer (sometimes true with certain programs) (Yes, I'm aware those points don't follow).
I told him to go get one of his CDs so I could show him how much bigger the files were, and he did. I put it in the cd tray, etc etc.
Every song on that cd had its size showing as 44 bytes.
I laughed and said that there was no way a song was 44 bytes. He laughed and said I just didn't want to admit I was wrong. I tried to explain that 44 bytes was the equivalent of a TINY picture, but ... I just gave up after 2 minutes.
I mean really... COME ON!
Oh, why did the files show up as 44 bytes?
