so now that I have all of them online and the eMule seems to work. here are the links:

Trash:
ed2k://|file|Firefly.-.Trash.(VCD.denoised).mpg|474365584|7756BA91F2CA091875105CCD36122109|/

The Message:
ed2k://|file|Firefly.-.The.Message.(VCD.denoised).mpg|471416428|BD84AADEE481F5B63AB318360A5206E4|/

Heart of Gold:
ed2k://|file|Firefly.-.Heart.Of.Gold.(VCD.denoised).mpg|471416428|66BF148D358ADE5155782D6E9342E991|/

...and here's what I did:
I downloaded the EPs in the not so very good SVCD versions and denoised the audio. thanks again to the original supplyer, I'm mearly tweaking it a bit you did all the hard work.
Heart of Gold is still a bit crackly in the beginning but it clears up after about 10 minutes or so.
I also resized them to the proper aspect ratio (approximately) and encoded it all to normal VCD standard.
should burn and play like any other VCD.
there are some interlaced-resized artifacts that I couln't get rid of but it's watchable I think.

to download them please install eMule oder eDonkey or any other compatible client. I prefer eMule and it is free and there's no spyware or anything annoying coming with it.
you can download it here:
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/emule/eMule0.29b-Installer.exe?down
load

if your client won't find any working servers, here's a server.met file (copy the link into the proper box in emule, it will download and use it):
http://ed2kmet.x24hr.com/pl/slist.pl?download

downloads will be quite slow but I hope steady. my eMule is running 24/7 and it's exclusively sharing these three files. my uplink is just 64kbit but the more people that share the faster it will be.

I hope you'll enjoy it. if there are any questions just ask.

You are a LEGEND! Idefix,

Its people like you, who make the internet what it should be.

I have also remade and repaired audio for these files (I only have a 56k dial up connection so sharing them is not practical). I am glad you could not get ALL the crackle out of "Heart of Gold" because I couldnt either, so I now feel a little better for the failure. :)

One question though.. Is what you refer to as "normal VCD standard" PAL or NTSC? I live in Australia and normal to me is PAL.

Also, I have not heard of emule is it any better than Kazaa(KazaaLite)?

with 'normal' I wanted to say NTSC. not that it is 'normal' to me. I'm from germany and so my 'normal' is PAL but I think the majority here thinks of NTSC as 'normal' so I didn't convert it. my TV can handle both so I don't convert. I watch it in whatever format it comes in.

if someone needs PAL versions I can make them too. but these are NTSC.

PS: I'm glad you found out how to use the links. and you didn't make a fool of yourself, there are so many sharing networks out there you can't possibly know all of them.

...and eMule just seems to work well with big files (video). lots of europeans seem to prefer it to kazaa. it works better for me. but most americans seem to prefer kazaa. I think eMule works quite well with slow connections. it isn't all that fast but it works reliable. it's a sourceforge project, no company behind it, no spyware.
