In my code, I load up an entire folder into a list and then try to get rid of every file in the list except the .mp3 files.

import os
import re
path = '/home/user/mp3/'
dirList = os.listdir(path)
dirList.sort()
i = 0
for names in dirList:
  match = re.search(r'\.mp3', names)
  if match:
    i = i+1
  else:
    dirList.remove(names)
print dirList
print i

After I run the file, the code does get rid of some files in the list but keeps these two especifically:

['00. Various Artists - Indie Rock Playlist October 2008.m3u', '00. Various Artists - Indie Rock Playlist October 2008.pls']

I can't understand what's going on, why are those two specifically escaping my search.
