Hi all.

 Just some facts:
  1- The mp3 format is ALREADY COMPRESSED !!!, almost to the maximun
, so if you use winzip ( or anyother) most you must accomplish is a 1
or 3 % of the total size, considering that the mp3 are from 2Mb to
6MB that is reduce the size in about 100 Kb, not big deal .

 The other thing you can do is rename them, instead of song.mp3 you
can put something like: sound.exe , sound.hlp or anything you like,
after download all you have to do is renamed back, and even if you
have winamp ( www.winamp.com) you don't neither need this, only
include the file ( sound.exe ) in the play list and that's all.

Cheers.
