Both iTunes and my iPod have been doing this recently.

It will play a song for a few seconds (every song this happens to plays for a different length) and then switch to another songs. It is like the songs are corrupted or something. It's not that they songs are set to end (you can change it in the song info), so I don't get it.

These songs used to play just fine. Anyone know what the deal is. I have more computer problems than any human on earth, I swear!

MDD G4/10.3.2, etc.......I stay up to date

My iPod has stopped playing the last 5 seconds or so of some songs. I don't know why. I wonder if our problems are related.

I've had this happen on some corrupted MP3's that I have had, it would stop playing at the same place each time but it did that from the get-go (the files never worked).

Maybe your iTunes Music Library files have become corrupted (they are inside your Music folder in your home directory). I'd try creating a new user and then playing one of the songs's that doesn't work for you in that users iTunes.
