Thanks. What a wonderful gift from the Vatican.

You're quite welcome, and indeed it is.  Many superbly talented musicians contributed to the tracks there and it's quite a gift indeed that they are all being given away for free  :-)

Now if I can learn what an MP3 IS.

It's the name given to a type of file used for audio and music.  There are lots of technical details available, but you don't really need to know all that in order to enjoy the music.  If you have a Windows computer, you "should" already have Windows Media Player which will play MP3 files just fine.  If you have an Apple or Macintosh computer please let me know and I will ping someone who can help you with that far better than myself.

Have you downloaded things from the internet before?  Do you need some help with that?

Please let me know if you need some help with downloading, playing or burning the music onto a CD   :-)

Thanks for the info. I DO have a windows media player. I listen to Rush and Mark Levin thru the wonders of my computer. But I’m not sure if I’d know how to save any of this Vatican music. Much less find it to play again. I know these are things kids can do effortlessly in a NY minute.

I am going to click the links you provided and see how it works. Not really ready yet for Christmas music but anything I’ve ever heard out of the Vatican is so special. I can still hear all the priests/seminiarians/whatever singing and chanting during the Pope’s funeral It was just beautiful.

Am also very excited about the Pope’s upcoming visit to ‘our [nearby] town’ He’ll be in DC in April and I will put up with the mobs for the chance of a glimpse.

If I can’t get the music, I will FReepmail you. Thanks so much.
