Instead of embedding one of the players on our website, we would just like to include a hyperlink so people can automatically download the track. Is this possible and if so, how can I find the link.

Hi there,

We don't offer an official direct download URL. However, there's a workaround. To get a direct download link add the track for which you want a download to your RSS feed, then copy & paste the URL of the feed to a new browser window. You can now look (or search using cmd+F) for a URL that ends with .mp3 - this might work as your direct download link.

How to add a track to your RSS feed is outlined here.

Cheers
