Recipe for a proper file download list:
Difficulty: easy
Time: 15-25 minutes

1 list element
1 list block mark
1 standard field (for file description)
1 media element (for the file)
2 attribute elements (filetype, filesize)

Take the list element and place it inbetween your list block mark.
add a anchor tag and make sure, that the filename is inside the title
attribute or the tag itself.
mix the anchor with the 2 attribute tags to get a proper link.
for the finish add the standard field below to tell the reddot
masterchief what exactly they are going to download.

Advanced recipe:
Add a file forwarder to your anchor for your visitors convenience.
Visitors like it, when they click on a PDF and the download starts.
Visitors hate it when Acrobat kicks in, the browser freezes for a
couple of seconds and then the X megabyte PDF is open.

Enjoy. Serves best with a nice bowl of red.
