Well, after reading Don's message, a file with the .asx extension is a small
text metafile rather than a play list, but it does a similar job as a play
list, pointing to the location of the file to be played.

Melody,
A file with a .asx extension is a Windows Media play list file. It just
points to the location of the actual file. I know this because I have to deal
with these files when I try to listen to Paul Harvey News from his Web site.
For some reason, my version of Media Player refuses to recognize this file type
when I try to get the stream from the Web site, but, strangely enough, it works
fine after I download the play list file and access it through My Computer. If
you open the file in Notepad, you can see what file it is pointing to. I have
modified the name of the file in these play lists from time to time to listen
to a previous weeks news broadcast. I don't know if you will be able to get
the actual audio or video file that's pointed to in the play list. If all else
fails, you could stream the file and record it with one of the recording
programs that have been discussed on this list.

Does anyone know what the file extension asx means?
It doesn't seems to be support on any of the audio converters.
