Hi Peter,

This, apparently, is where offline explorer comes in to it.

From what I can gather from my friend, when you arrive at the "listen 
again" link, you then "leftclick" and choose save using offline explorer.

This is then meant to save the file as an audio file.

However, I still have not got this to work.
