Thanks poohbear... The file has a ".swf" extension, the whole name being: BeautifulDixie-CD_secure.swf Internet Explorer and Firefox can play that file, as can they the related "htm" file. I tried forcing MS Media Player to play the file, but it couldn't play and "saw" the file as an "htm" file, regardless of the ".swf" extension. Seems I have all the information/data, just not the right format, for a CD.

Here's the definition of a podcast: According to the New Oxford American Dictionary, a podcast is "a digital recording of a radio broadcast or similar program, made available on the Internet for downloading to a personal audio player," but the generally accepted definition has expanded to include video as well as audio.
