Are they really .MP3 file or are they some sort of protected file format?
It doesn't sound logical that this would happen.
I know that early beta (unfinished) version of Win7 would sometimes corrupt the metadata of some .mp3 files at mess up the start of the song but that was fixed a LONG time ago.

update to or download the latest version of Quicktime. Live depends on it for mp3 decoding.
