James, I just downloaded a file and then played it with my mp3 player. I find it easiest to always download the file first, then I have it and I can play it in my own time. To download, right click on the link and then left click on Save Target As. Then you can download it to wherever you choose. To play it "on the fly" you must have Windows Media Player, or whatever player you are using, set up under its own Options to play mp3 files. In Win98, you also have to see in Windows Explorer > Tools > Folder Options > File types, that your particular media player has been set-up to play mp3 files, if not, you must install it to do so by adding the file type (.mp3) to the list. There are so many media files these days that it is a veritable nightmare linking each one to its particular video/audio player and then every time one installs a new one or uninstalls an old one one has to go through the whole linking process again because every player wants to be exclusive. It's by far the easiest to download the file to a particular directory and then one can play it just by opening the file with any suitable player. Then one doesn't need all the linking hassle.
