Re: Download multiple sound files?

Hey all,

Thanks for the good suggestions. I think Stut and TG here are on the right track with a zip file kind of thing.

They should be able to handle that and the php/zip stuff looks good to.

Much thanks!

Stut beat me to it...  downloading multiple files at once is probably best done with compressing them and just downloading the one file.

You could possibly rig a situation where the user downloaded one file, then a certain number of seconds later, the page redirects to the next file to download... but that would be slow and not terribly efficient.

Another option is to use a non-PHP solution.  List all the links to the files they want to download and use a download manager like Download Accelerator Plus (DAP), GetRight, umm.. some "*zilla" program I believe did it, or something like the "DownloadThemAll!" Firefox extension.

Hey all,

I have a need to allow a user to download multiple sound files (mp3s, typically) from a single link. I've been looking at various solutions via Google, but have not seen one yet to do this.

Can anyone point me in the right direction or give me a lead on how this can be done?

Thanks!
