gargy, don't use quicktime, use winamp or some other mp3 player.
If you right click on the link and save the file to your computer, you can play mp3's on any player you want to. If you just click on the link, Quicktime tries to play the file which sucks enven though quicktime may not be the registered player set up to play mp3's on your machine. Not sure how they get away with this but it sucks.
I hate how quicktime keeps altering my windows startup task. Everytime I use quicktime, it adds quicktime task "qttask.exe" to the windows startup menu and I have to go and delete it again so it does not start up automatically in windows..
