i downloaded a file which claimed to be an mp3 but it only appears as an 18mb dat file which i can play on winamp but can not convert or place on a portable mp3 player, can anyone explain this?

Re: dat file

Try changing the extension to something else, such as .mp3. See here on how to show extensions: http://forum.dbpoweramp.com/showthread.php?t=5361

Re: dat file

You probably saved as a default in Windows and it gave it an mp3 extension. What is the file's extension on the website where you donwloaded it from?
