Default Access to Shared music files by other users?

has it's title in black and can be played! I have set the shared music file
to full access by all users.

Can anyone advise as to what the problem is and how can I solve it?

Thanks in anticipation


I assume that Google looks at the file and sees if there is Digital Rights Management on it. The one song that works might be a song that doesn't have DRM. Don't know if this is true, but it would make sense.

Do you think he's been waiting 11 years for your answer and do you think the
DRM scenario was that same in 2002 ?
