1. What section of the song is sampled for the preview? Meaning how is that determined during the encoding, does it take a predetermined section or randomly select 60 second section?

2. How can I display the MP3 bitrate? eg "320 mp3"? What I'm going to do is pitch to Artist that they can sell "extended mixes" in higher bit rate (eg for DJs) at $2.99 and then "Radio Edits" for regular audiences at 128k for $.99

3. Is the foxy cart bundles module used for bundling up songs into an Album and setting an album price?

Thanks guys!

The sample section is taken from the center of the song (time wise).

The key is $audio_file_bitrate - check out the audio Datastore browser and you can see all the keys that are stored for each audio file.

Hope this helps!
