If I left click on the link for each chapter's audio, Firefox uses Quicktime to play the audio, but if I right click on the link, choose "save link as" and choose where to save the audio, I can save it to my computer.

Is there a way to download the Russian audio for "Master and Margarita" to the computer or can it only be played off the website? I don't have PRO whatever (I right-clicked on the mp3 player and it said PRO: Download Source).

It might explain how to do so so on the page, but I don't speak Russian. I tried clicking a lot of links but no success.


Why so? When I click on "01" for example, a new window is opened where you have the download link "MP3". When I click on it, Firefox asks me whether I want to play or to download the file. Perhaps your default option is to play it without downloading to disc, you might want to change that.

To change how Firefox handles mp3s do this:

Go to Tools – Options – Applications

Scroll down to MPEG Layer 3 Audio File and click on it.

Under action you will have a drop down menu, change to save file and click ok.

Mine was set to play in Quicktime, now when I click on the audio links for "Master and Margarita", Firefox automatically downloads it.

I went back a few pages and didn't see this mentioned, but librivox has volunteer native
speakers making freely available recordings of works on project Gutenberg.

I am an ESL textbook writer, and I have started having some of my conversation textbooks translated into other languages and posted on my website. I have finished the Chinese one and am working on Korean and Japanese.

Have a look and, please, any advice would be appreciated!
