Hey everyone,

As I go through files and attempt to collect every top 40 hit in each year, I thought it would be best to at least document what songs I am having trouble locating in each year and if anyone knows of better source for them.

My understanding is the following two hits were only released through Itunes and are not available on CD or as lossless digital downloads:

Carrie Underwood- I'll Stand By You
Blake Lewis- You Give Love A Bad Name

The following were on NOW CD's here in the US but are checking back as lossy. The Justin Timberlake song is also available as a 5 minute and 7 minute version, but with the /I think she knows added on, correct? Anyone know if the 5 minute got played or is lossless?

Justin Timberlake- Lovestoned [4:18]
Fergie- Big Girls Don't Cry [4:14]

Can either song be taken from the CD versions to recreate the edits?

The following had a promo cd, but both the no rap and the radio edit are coming back lossy. The CD version on Good Girls Gone Bad is lossless.

Rihanna Featuring Jay-Z - Umbrella [4:20]
Rihanna- Umbrella [No Rap] [3:46]

Can the 4:20 be made from the CD version on Good Girls Gone Bad?

The following track always comes back lossy, no matter what the digital or CD source is:

Ne-Yo Because of You [Radio Edit] [3:48]. Not sure if this a unique edit off of the 4 minute CD version.

The other issue is I can't find an explicit version for R. Kelly Featuring T.I. & T-Pain - I'm A Flirt [Remix] and the clean version appears lossy.

The remaining is a list of tracks that did not appear to be lossless when I ran trader's little helper:

Carrie Underwood – Wasted [Radio Edit].wav: track looks like MPEG with probability 95%.
Crime Mob with Lil' Scrappy - Rock Yo Hips [Clean].wav: track looks like MPEG with probability 95%.
DJ Khaled- We Takin Over [Explicit] - track looks like MPEG with probability 95%.

T.I. Featuring Wyclef Jean - You Know What It Is [Clean] [Radio Edit].wav: track looks like MPEG with probability 95%.

If anyone can help point me in the right direction or check their promos much appreciated. Thanks in advance!
