MIDI and WAV files are everywhere nowadays. Most of the time, we don't know who created them or how long they are. But, if you right-click on a MID or WAV file and select 'Properties', you should see extra tabs: Details & Preview. Under the Details tab, you can view time, artist, and possibly copyright information. Under the Preview tab... well, duh... you can listen to the sound file. It's like a built in media player! Try right-clicking on different types of files to see what "extra" tabs pop up (try DOC or EXE files).
