Right lads, I wanna download an mp3 that somebody has posted. They give the link & said right click to download but it only seems to open & play in my Quicktime player. How do I actually download & save the mp3?

Is it giving you a contextual menu when you right click? (I'm assuming you have a two-button mouse. If not, try holding down the control button when you click on the link.)

Are you using Safari? If you are, open its download manager (Window -> Downloads), and paste the link into there. It should begin downloading immediately. No need to mess around.
