Bet they aren't really MP3's. No idea what they really are though.

The snippets of words get sent to google translator, and mp3 files come back, and the script sticks all the files together in order. But the routine fails in lame conversion. I have taken other mp3's and lame converts them fine. When I try to run either the assembled mp3 or one of the individual mp3 files I get header error on them. Also noted that the individual files, maybe 50-80 of them are only about 400 bytes long and after cat puts them together the file is maybe 50k, which sounds wrong. I didn't do anything to this stuff, just using what was in Doug's Raspberry Pi distro, which otherwise works great.
