The problems is, places like sendspace suck and try and trick you into
download all kinds of spyware, toolbars and crap.
It's how they make their money.
What you first have to do is to untick the box that says "download
with sendspace downloader" or similar, then on the next page IGNORE
the two large "download now" and one large "listen now" buttons - they
are put there to trick.
At the bottom of the page, under all the other crap, is "Click here to
start download from sendspace". Pain in the butt, eh?
So what I'm going to do is download it and just upload it somewhere
like box.com where you can easily listen online or download without
jumping through all these tricky hoops!
I've be back in the morning with a URL for you!
