This article contains information on allowing MP3 file downloads. Permissions can also be set for which types of users can download files:

  • For all people in the Services account, Organization Administrators can update the Permissions Settings on the People page.

  • For individual users, Scheduler permissions and higher can update file access from a person's profile.

  1. Select Allow Downloads to allow new audio files to be downloaded by default. If this is set to Stream Only, audio files can be streamed, but only people with permissions set in the next field can download them.

  2. Set the user permission for people who can download files. People with this permission can change an individual song setting to allow it to be downloaded, even if the default is only streaming.

Note

Changes to download defaults will only affect files that are added after the update. Previously added files won't be affected.

Change Individual MP3 Settings

People who have permission to allow audio downloads, as set in Audio Permissions can change individual MP3 settings.

In an arrangement, hover over an MP3 file, and click the pencil to edit it,
