If you have PHP capabilities with your hosting, you can use headers with the fopen feature that will force certain file types, based on what you put in your header, to download instead of just opening, thus forcing the download of an MP3 file.
Like this:
http://www.experts-exchange.com/Web/...2.html#8621469PHP Code:header("Content-disposition: attachment; filename=$filename.mp3");
header("Content-type: application/octetstream");
header("Pragma: no-cache");
header("Expires: 0");
$client=getenv("HTTP_USER_AGENT");
$fp=fopen("$filename","r");
$str=fread($fp,filesize($filename));
echo $str;
fclose($fp);
