"Noise" was a poor choice of words; it easily could have been taken (and obviously was by you, and probably others) negatively to mean something almost like "worthless talk, "junk," or something like that.
I intended for it to be neutral, to express the thought that I knew that the answer to my question was hidden in the content of your discussion(s). It just would take some digging and sorting through the content of the discussion(s), on my part, in order to get that
little piece of information that I needed. Something like "irrelevant information" would have come across negatively, too. Maybe I should have just gone into detail like I've just done. Hindsight is always 20/20.
Your statements, "They were standard mp3s. Now it seems they are not, at least going by a few of our examples. You'd need the Kobo app to play them on a smartphone" was
exactly what I needed to know.
I saw some goodies, that I'd like to have, among Kobo's audiobooks sale selection, but I seriously am dissuaded, now, from buying any of them. I have a smartphone now, but even after adding a 32GB card to what I have in the onboard memory, whatever amount that is, space is at a premium. I may check my smartphone's owner's manual, that I have on my hard drive here, to see if it tells if I can add a 64GB card. If so, maybe Kobo (and B&N Ack!) would be viable options.
