This is going to be pointless to half my friendslist, and possibly not of interest to the other half, but since they're uploaded I may as well post them. I put together a ballad-free mix of BSB and Nsync (and related) songs for a friend for possible use as workout music.

+ JC Chasez - 63 meg
+ Nick Carter - 25 meg

List of all songs in files. rar password = workout
