downloading MP3 file from URL

[sao]

Can someone please help me...

I have a URL that links to an mp3 but all it does when I put the URL into my
browser is load up my player. Is there a way I can download this file? I
would have thought its downloaded it already as it doesnt take long to play
after it was first played.

Does this make sense? If so, do I need a download manager? if so, please
recommend one.. Ta

Try holding down <shift> when clicking the MP3 link; a SAVE AS box may
appear. Or try the right-click menu - for that choice.

After playing the MP3, it may be temporarily stored in the CACHE
directory. A Windows search for *.mp3 is worth a try.

You can also examine the VIEW|PAGE SOURCE (or similar in I.E.) to attempt
to spot the URL for the MP3 file, which could provide other save options.

Right-Click on the URL, and choose "Save Target as...", then select the
folder to put the file in.

Hi Ta: are you sure that you don't have to purchase this file first? Bob.
