Can anyone help please?? I need to download a particular song so that it can be played at a funeral this Friday. Mate of mine's mum died and he's asked me if I can do this.

Thing is :

i) I've never done it.......hows it work??
ii) is it illegal??

.....any other tips would be very welcome.

Thank you.

OK, Here's one possible solution of many:

look up itunes in google,
download itunes player,
once downloaded and installed, go to itunes music store,
look for your song in search bar,
if there, register your bank details (all above board),
buy and download song,
then buy a recordable cd,
then move your song into a new playlist (itunes will show you how),
then select 'burn cd',
you will now have your song on a cd that you can play on any cd player.

(like I said just one option. There are loads of download sites but you can trust itunes with your details and know it is all legal)

What's the song? Maybe someone can help, or email it to you?

The question was about downloading...

Mind you I seem to remember that HMV were trialing download connections in their shops. Don't really understand the point of that as it negates the main advantage of downloading from the comfort of your own home.

Thanks for that Deavon, I'll give it a try...cheers.
I have looked Skatiechik, in HMV etc....... but can't find it.
So to answer your post Norbert (thanks for yr help btw).........the song is (don't laugh) Harry Belafonte......."Try to remember a day in September".....think that's the full title anyway.

Again.....many thanks for your suggestions guys.

Result!

I've just checked the music store and itunes has it!

Good luck with your first download (watch out, it becomes addictive).
