I just came over from another online storage site. When you got a URL linking code to your music files they played when you pasted them into a link box in the message on a forum on another site. When I do that in FileDen I just get a box asking if I want to open or save the file. When I select open I get a QuickTime Plugin error instead of the file playing in Windows Media Player.
Sorry if this is long. How do you get the direct link to play on another site, or, can you? How do you get a straightup URL linking code?
Thanks for any help!

Firstly the links you are playing must be played in a player, you choose windows media player, yet it attempts to open them in quicktime. you have to remove the file associations in quicktime and reselect the associations in windows media player. Then all your opened mp3's will open with windows media player instead of quicktime.
Also check that none of your mp3 titles have spaces, you need to use underscores only example this_is_my_song.mp3 post an example of one of your links here
