music takes too long to download!

I've just published my site, but I don't think I set up the mp3's to download correctly. If I did it right, it would be quick wouldn't it? xx

Depends on the size of the file and the users internet connection speed. If it seems to take longer than you wish to download then you might think about downsizing the bitrate. I would suggest to about 56 kb/s. This will allow the files to be downloaded a lot quicker.

How do I downsize the bitrate? Some of the files are as much as 954 Kb/s! (and they're only clips of music!) x

Whats the domain name that the MP3's are on?

susannabenn.com. I've made them smaller, but they are still too big and now they don't sound as good. x

You can up the bitrate a little if you want, but keep in mind that the larger the file, the longer it will take the user to download.
