    I need help with downloading/using zip files


    Hello everyone. I purchased an album of music in a FLAC file that i downloaded as a ZIP file. I previously got a free download of an album also using a ZIP file and had posted a thread cause I could not open it up and figured it was corrupt. Now I am not sure so I am making another thread. I checked and the file size is correct:

    327.9MB My two files (i tried twice) and i have files of 327.0MB Not sure if this is the problem, but I should be able to download a music zip file with my 5G high speed wired internet connection. When i right click the files no drop box appears so I cannot do anything with the file. I could download it as an MP3 but would really NOT prefer to listen to music in this fashion if at all possible.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

While experimenting with itunes it seems to have taken over and established quicktime as the default downloader of mp3 files. I uninstalled it but now don't know what to substitute as the default program for downloading.
