Thanks a bunch, Sarah! I've just uploaded three of the four episodes
that weren't actually available (my 261 was also poor sound). I'd
never heard of Mediafire before. Seems like an incredible service;
what's the catch? :)

My mistake in not going to the "links" section before writing my
original message, so I didn't know that it was preferred to upload
files in complete seasons (I *knew* I should've browsed around more
first). So I didn't bother to upload the others that apparently are
more widely available....tho I'd be glad to at any time in the
future.

Was very excited to get #116...can't believe I've never found it
anywhere else before. I don't think this is on Martin's site...is
it? Anyway, I'm often on WinMX and sharing every ep I have, so
anyone feel free to take as much as you like if I'm on.

Looking forward to chatting more about JAM in the future. Can't wait
to uncover more episodes!

Chris
