Any computer techy people know anything about video files that end with .avi? All videos that I try to download seem to be .avi and my computer won't play them. Is there a special player for this? And also anyone know of any converters to get them on to either a DVD or an ipod?

Well if you don't wanna pay for anything then chances are you won't be able to get the file converted. However, you will be able to play them using free media players like Quicktime or VLC.

And JLC and TLC, they're good too. THC is pretty bomb also.

I really hope you don't actually like the 90's girl band, TLC.
