Emails are checked regularly, however, and we will respond as soon as we receive notification via PayPal.

Please bear in mind that this may take a few hours.

The file is a composite 'Zip' File containing all the songs on the album.

'Zip' files are compressed versions which can then be simply de-compressed or 'unzipped' to your computer using the WinZipT utility.

If you do not haveWinZipT, you can obtain it free here
