This is strange. I purchased a song from iTMS earlier in the week, and when I transferred it to my iPod, there are several bursts of static in the song. The static appears at regular positions within the song, appears consistently, and only appears in that song (and no other songs on my iPod). It does NOT appear in iTunes. Has anyone ever seen this before? I haven't listened to every song in my library through my Pod, but this is the first time I've run across this. I am going to try re-uploading the song to the iPod and see if that helps....
