Well lets keep it going then and expand it to include current politics.
That alone should run forever, eh? LOL

It should download them to a folder called my hadtracks which as I
recall is off the desktop.
You will need to install the download manager first if you haven't done
that but once that's done it should download the album automatically.
I will say however that one album I bought last year gave me a problem
so after threatening them for a couple of days I got them to fix the
problem which was on their site

things I tried, the first time I signed up was to let the thing go
overnight. The next day, I had nothing anywhere on my computer. I don't
know if it is looking for preference information to tell it where to
put the downloaded files or what, but it doesn't seem to be downloading
them and putting them in some default location. I selected FLAC as my
format, and searched everywhere for FLAC files to no avail. Not on the
desktop, not in My Music, not in any folder on any drive, nor were
there any signs I could find of temp files that might denote partial
downloads. Of course, this was the first time I tried it, way back. It
might be worth trying again to see if it does automatically download to
a default location now. Perhaps that has changed. It wouldn't be ideal,
since I have very specific sorting methods and would like to be able to
check download progress as well, but I can always move files and it
would be better than nothing.

run rather than save since the first thing that download is what
apparently triggers the download of the album. HTH.

quality music downloads. The name of the site is HD Tracks. I signed up
for their site when they were brand new and got the free album they
were offering added to my account, but was never able to download it
because their download manager was completely inaccessible. I recently
heard that they had expanded their selection to a lot more popular
music and decided to see if they had progresed in their accessibility.
No such luck. Their download manager is Java based, and there is no
reason why it couldn't be completely accessible. I sent them an email
requesting help back when the site first opened and got no response. I
sent them another email just now, and doubt I will get a reply if I am
the only person they get requesting accessibility.

definition music, please take a moment to let these people know that
blind consumers like music too and that adding accessibility to their
site would be appreciated. I wish that the problem could just be solved
by an app, but since the downloader only shows up as a title bar, I
don't think there is anything to work with to identify the elements.
What is doubly annoying is that the rest of the site is fine. You can
shop, find albums, create an account and even buy music. You just can't
download it once you buy it.
