Has this ever happened to any one? i put an MP3 on my PSP and played it once, then when i looked at the file again, it said the data was corrupted. Everything else works fine, it almost seems like the file had a self destruct code wrtiien into it :?

Has this happened to anyone else, and should I be concerned about it?

Sometimes music files on the PSP 'corrupt' when you fast forward them (in my xperience anyway). take the memory card out and put it back in again and it should be fine.

It has happened to me with only one song, and after re-downloading it, it happened again, so I just decided to put it in my normal MP3.

it also happened to me and the only remedy that i have found is already mentioned by salami5000.other than this u can exit the song before its last second that way it won't get corrupted and u won't have to take out and then again put the memory card.

Hmm i had this problem with one of my songs too

I fixed it by moving the song to a different folder or by making a new folder in MUSIC and putting the song in there

It worked fine after that

I wouldn't say that's entirely true. I rip music from a CD and that still happens to me once in a while.

the song may have a virus if you downloaded it from a filesharing device such as limewire or kazaa, try a different song and if it doesn't happen to that song it must be a problem with the song you downloaded.

My videos keep corrupting, for some reason my psp just won't play mp4's, so I have to use AVC files, and also, sometimes when I play Survivalism by NIN, it will start and play the video, but then will say that it cannot be played after a few seconds of playing it...strange:|

This stuff happened to me a year back or so, I either just turned the psp completely off, or restored it to its default settings, and I haven't experienced it since.
