An M3U file is actually a playlist file. It should be a very small text file that contains the address(es) of the actual MP3(s). If you can save it and open with a text editor (eg BBedit) you may be able to get the URLS of the media files and download them. Alternatively; look in your browser cache, possibly a copy of the MP3 will be there. If no dice, post the URL of the page. -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
