M3u to Mp3
Does anyone on here know an easy way to listen to music that comes from M3U files? I tried googgling this and got so many answers that went nowhere that I just gave up.

I assume they are since you can open them in Notepad. I don't understand why music would come in M3U if it can't be listened to.

.m3u simply tells the player location and order of the audio files, e.g. if you got some folder with mp3 files and a .m3u file within it (or .m3u8 if it's Unicode), that .m3u is most likely created to play the mp3 files from that same folder.
Your audio player (Winamp, foobar2000) opens .m3u playlists.

How does that function? I have a very old M3U file and a HES file that go with a PC-Engine game. I cannot for the life of me figure out how to open the playlist inside the text file. It shows around 40 songs but only puts in 3 songs into foobar when I drag the M3U file into it.

It works by storing full path to files e.g.
Spoiler:
or relative path (assuming .m3u is also inside) e.g. Spoiler:
Type number 2 is better because it will work no matter where you move the folder, for full path version it would stop working the moment you change the location. (numbers after #EXTINF are just track length in seconds - #EXTINF:120 would be 2 minutes) As for your (specialized) problem with PC-Engine rips, .m3u is used kinda differently when there's just one .hes file containing all the tracks and .m3u specifies the info about each track inside the hes e.g. Spoiler:
and more importantly, you're maybe missing the thing to decode it, try installing http://www.foobar2000.org/components/view/foo_gep and since this is a special case, drag & drop .hes file on foobar, not .m3u (or just do file->open and navigate to hes).
