Each file is given in two versions; both are compressed, making it possible to download the files relatively quickly but with some compromise of audio fidelity: (1) *.MOV (QuickTime) format and (2) *.RA (Real Audio) format. These files may also also "stream," meaning that they will begin playing before being fully downloaded, depending on how your system is configured.
Free software for playing each format is available online by clicking
