So I added a File Exists test (entire code below)
Then tried "escaping" the &
BTW, CFContent could not resolve a manually created symlink ---
interesting

<cfsetting enablecfoutputonly="yes" />
<cfoutput><br>#Application.Tracks[URL.TID]["Location"]#</cfoutput>
<!--- Decode the Location URL so we can use it as a file path --->
<cfset Location = Application.Tracks[URL.TID]["Location"] />
<cfset FilePath = URLDecode(ReReplace(Location, "file://localhost",
"")) />
<!---
<cfset FilePath = ReReplace(FilePath, "/Users/test/Music/iTunes/iTunes
Music", "iTunes Music alias") />
--->
<!--- Get the file extension --->
<cfset FileType = ReReplace(FilePath, ".*(\..*$)", "\1") />
<cfoutput><br>#FilePath#</cfoutput>
<cfoutput><br>#FileType#</cfoutput>
<!--- Abort if we can't find the file --->
<cfif NOT FileExists((FilePath)) >
<cfabort>
</cfif>
<!--- Serve content based on File Type --->
<cfif FileType EQ ".mov" >
<!--- This works for QT .mov files --->
<CFHEADER NAME="Content-Disposition" VALUE="attachment;
filename=movie.mov">
<cfcontent type = "video/quicktime"
file=#FilePath#
deleteFile = "No">
<cfelse>
<!--- this works for mp3 --->
<CFHEADER NAME="Content-Disposition"
VALUE="attachment; filename=song.mp3">
<cfcontent type = "audio/mp3"
file=#FilePath#
deleteFile = "No">
</cfif>
