Y2K with MP3

Yup, that's right. One wouldn't think there would be any Y2K issues with MP3 playback, but apparently there was. Two MP3 devices from Visiosonic and Audio Box refused to co-operate after the turn of the century. Visiosonic's DLL expired at the end of 1999, and Audio Box's interface software used a buggy algorithm for counting dates. There's a patch available for the Audio Box software.
