How to Download
The audio files on our web site are in MP3 file format.

MP3 is a method of audio file compression.

MP3 can compress sound files into a very small space, yet the sound quality is unchanged when you play the file.

You can hear MP3 audio by playing the file on your computer using media player software or you can play the file on a digital audio player ("MP3 Player" or "DAP") -  a portable, handheld digital music player that stores, organizes and plays MP3 and often other audio files.   

Most DAPs are powered by rechargable batteries, some of which are not user replaceable should they wear out. Listening to music stored on DAPs is typically done through earphones, but external speakers and docking devices are also available.

You can download player software for your computer from the Web.  You can either click on the file link (double click left mouse button) to open your player software and hear the audio without downloading the file - "streaming" audio that you can play directly from the Web page - or you can actually download the file before playing it.

Download an MP3 player program from the Internet if you don't already have one installed on your computer (you probably already have one installed).  Look for shareware applications such as MusicMatch Jukebox, Microsoft Media Player or WinAmp for Windows and MacAmp for Macintosh.

To download the file (on a Windows computer) place your mouse cursor on the link of the file you want to download and then click the button on the RIGHT side of the mouse.  (Clicking with the left mouse button will open the file and play the audio without actually downloading the file to your computer.) Now LEFT click on "Save Target As . . .".   The "Save As . . " window should now pop up and provide you a choice of where on your computer you want to save the file and what to name the file.  If you do rename the file make sure to leave the .mp3 at the end so that your player software will recognize it as an MP3 file.

There are no license restrictions to download and listen to the audio files on this web site.  This is a free public service.
