I don't know if this site used to offer this feature, but you can slow down an .mp3 file with something like Audacity (http://audacity.sourceforge.net/) (it's free).

The stuff in the Effects menu isn't enabled until all or part of the track is selected. If you click on Edit | Select ... | All (or CTRL-A), you will select the entire track.

Need to give credit where credit is due...

I learned about Audacity from this lesson (http://www.guitartricks.com/lesson.php?input=10010) by Scott Evans.

About all I've done with it is change the tempo, but that's real useful for practice.

I downloaded Audacity but cant seem to find out how to playback- when I hit playback the songs is just about a one second bleep- like it is being played at warp speed. I use Mac OSX 10.4
