Downloading songs?

pwell · 18th May 2001, 18:52

i'm quite new to all this.
basically, i want to download loads of good songs from the internet.
i found this site the other day and it seemed to have songs that i would be particulary interested in.
the only problem is that unless i have some sort of computer aid helping me download all this, then i don't know what i am doing.

one song i tried downloading went through the basic rigmaroll and then asked me what file i wanted to put it in.

for the first time since downloading my "wizard" program didn't spring to my aid.

i have a similar program to winamp called creative playcentre 2.0.

now my problem is that i'm either downloading songs wrong for play2.0 or play2.0 won't let me.

does winamp download songs?
do you know how to do it?
are you familiar with creative playcentre2.0?
am i doing something wrong?
how do you properly download things?
what did you eat for lunch yesterday? - only kidding, just trying to add a litte humour to go with this epic request.

In your browser, right-click the song's link and pick "save target as" and download it to your desktop. If it's an MP3 then that's good... if it's an M3U then that's no good because it's likely a stream instead of an actual song file...

I had a dead skunk for lunch (just adding a little humour as well)
