They exist, I've seen them.
They register as WAVE files, they have a
RIFF....WAVEfmt
file header, but they will only play in an mpeg player (eg. AmigaAmp)
If you try to load them up on any other program (eg. Play16) they
complain that they don't support that format.
Personally I cant see what they are saved as WAVs though, when all
they really are are MP3 files.
See ya :)
