Accessing audio
Need help listening to or downloading our audio or video content?
Listening online
You don't need any special software to listen to our audio on your computer, and you don't need to download any files. Simply click on the 'Play' button of the media player on each individual audio or video page to start listening. The 'Rewind' and 'Fast Forward' buttons will take you to the start and finish of the audio/video. You can adjust the volume within our player or from your computer's volume control.
Downloading
For PCs
Where you see either a 'Listen to...' link or 'Download...' link, right-click on the link and Save File As/Save Target As (PC).
For Macs
Where you see either a 'Listen to...' link or 'Download...' link, control-click on the link and Save File As (Mac).
