Understanding .zip files.

A .zip file contains one or multiple files that have been compressed into a single file called an Archive. An archive needs to be opened with compression software before the files inside can be accessed. Windows and  OS X both come with ZIP compression built-in to the operating system. Follow this guide to learn how.

On a PC
  1. Right click on the link or download button for the .ZIP file. There will be an option to save the file to your desktop.

Direct Access from Your Mobile Device – SmartPhone or Ipad.

It is possible to direct stream all the audio files via wifi or mobile data to your device. We would not recommend this approach ongoing, as you will use lots of data unnecessarily every time you want to listen to an audio session. We recommend downloading all audios to your computer or laptop first and then syncing the files directly to your device.

If you do not have a laptop or computer that your device is synced to, there are other ways that you can access a zip file of your program directly to your internet mobile device (smart-phone or ipad etc.) In order to accomplish this you would need to get some third party software to unzip the files and save them to your phone.
