Saving an mp3 instead of playing it

My friend likes to visit a bible website that lets her listen to various
chapters of the bible in MP3 format. When you click on a link it opens her
Windows designated MP3 player and then plays the file. But she would like
to save these files to disk (rather than listen to them) and then copy them
to her MP3 player. I have found a convoluted way to do this using Windows
Media Player to open the MP3 URL and then, once the file is playing, save
it. This is time consuming and there are a lot of files.

Is there a better way to do this? What would really be great is some kind
of FTP file viewer of the remote directory but I guess that requires a
password. On the other hand, the MP3 file names are all sequential so even
just a way to automate the download process would be helpful. Thanks.

With FireFox you better install the Download-Them-All extension to
grab all mp3 files at once, makes life a lot easier.
