I'm gonna correct something I just said on another page and move this here. I thought a partially-loaded file was playing while it was downloading from the Tree but that's just because I did a test with a small file. With the Monotrona file, if I just click the link I get the hourglass and I assume it's downloading (silently) and eventually will appear as a Quicktime bar on a browser page. With Realplayer, which I turned off, I used to see a meter with the progress of the download. my .mp3s are supposed to play in Winamp now but for some files I get the Quicktime player--such as DMTree music files. Jim, did you set something that makes QT the preferred player for our music files? It doesn't matter for me, so much: I usually save stuff I know I want to my drive rather than just click on the link, and when I do that I type in the file extension (to override the persistent Realplayer) and it saves it as a Winamp file. I'm just curious if you did something on your end or if this is just the usual proprietary file extension battle that goes on every day in my computer.

Illiterately,
