How do I save or download the MP3 or WMA file for later playback?

There are a few different processes, depending on how your player is set up. After you click the Download link, the song should either save itself automatically to a temporary directory, or a personal folder or directory on your hard drive. Or you might get a pop-up prompting you to "Open the file" or "Save to Disk." In this case, choose "Save to Disk." Your computer will then ask you where you would like to save the file. Choose a destination you can remember so you can find the MP3 later.

Most players have a settings area where you can specify how you'd like to download songs. Try playing around with these settings to see which process you like best.

If you're still having trouble downloading the MP3 or WMA file, a quick solution is to right-click the Download link (or left click and hold if you're on Macintosh), left-click Save Link As or Save Target As, name the file and click save. You might also need to configure or "fine-tune" your browser settings.

What software do I need to play the MP3 or WMA?

Although you can play MP3's on just about any audio player, we recommend, Windows Media Player, RealPlayer, or Winamp.  You must use Windows Media Player to play the WMA format file.
