Make sure that the MP3 files that you are getting from your music source and trying to open, do not have any cover art embedded in the file tag. If they do, they will not load properly. If this is the case, the workaround for this is to get an MP3 tag editor (free off the internet) and remove the cover art, then edit your MP3 file and then you can put the cover art back using the tag editor if you wish. This worked for me, I hope it does for you too.

BLOODY GOOD TIP....!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It is also caller a HEADER, and a text editor may be able to delete it as well
like notepad or wordpad. the only thing I don't know is, what they look like when
opened up and, can the offending data be easily identified?
I ask, because, everyone has their own special code, and that special code
is what will screw up software like NERO, and tell you, that your 50mb is now 1100mb.
I need to look further into this and see if someone has compiled a list of offending HEADER BAR info
that can be referred to.
I haven't opened up an audio file with notepad, but I was told about this from
a guy who works at DENON and he told me about the header bar and to use a text editor
to fix problems that each company puts in their product.
I just opened this mp3 file with notepad and copied part of what was in the header;

the rest was a bunch of different websites related to the author
then the body of the mp3 looked like this;
