If eBay has caused that then it's debatable as to whether they 'fixed' or 'broke' something.

Ebay still allows midi files. I like them, if you don't then upgarde your computor so you'll have speed to open page. Get out of stone age. Midi is end. Here is a link to a power seller who has his midi workink. GO FIGURE!!!!!!!!http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1377557635

There was no midi in that auction. Just some commercial about a breathalyzer/money tester/ LED light garbage (using windows media player)
But no midi.

You may like them but most buyers don't. They are on par with comet cursors in my book.

I didn't hear a midi with either of the auctions posted. Maybe the midi's are gone, I don't know. It's sort of like not noticing that your headache has gone away.
Until eBay gets the Midi files working maybe you could just post the text of a song and the buyers could just sing to themselves while they are looking at the auction.

I do most of my web browsing and ebaying at work (I'm allowed as eBay is part of my job, but if everyone the room hears music, they think I'm playing a game). The first thing that happens whenever I load a page with music is to immediately kill the browser.
There is nothing, I reapeat *NOTHING* that will lose a sale so quickly as having a web page with sounds or music.

there was a midi playing in the last auction. i have dsl so the pages load quickly, but as soon as that music starts playing i hit the back button. oh and by the way, midis are stone age. they annoy the buyer and cause sloooooooooooooooooooow page loads for those without high speed internet. get rid of those midis!

Putting a MIDI file in your auction is the eBay equivalent of having a junker car up on blocks in front of your single-wide, and the back yard full of rusting broken-down appliances.
I hear MIDI, I think "Yep. White trash."
