Unsynced mp3 sample files

These are short mp3 files with unsynchronized id3v2.3 tags that iTunes 7.6 had problems with (about a year ago). As the full filenames suggest, the embedded art in one of the files ("05...") didn't cause any problems, but the embedded art of the other file ("04...") tickled a bug of some sort in iTunes. While iTunes was unable to parse the tag correctly, other media players/taggers had no problems at all. 

The iTunes bug has been fixed since then (I just tested the current version, which is 8.2), but what about Quick Look? It may still linger there. I am not a Mac user, so I cannot test it myself. Feel free to do so, if you are interested.
