I found the demos at the dime torrent website (it's dimeadozen.com, or something like that). You'll need to register with them, which sometimes can be a hassle because they have a 100,000 member limit. Read through their FAQ's to help you understand this 'torrent' concept of 'seeding' and 'leeching' of shows. Once you get registered and the torrent software downloaded/working, you can download the Gordon Lightfoot thing. Depending on the speed of your connection and how many computers out there are 'seeding' the show, the download could take several hours. When completed, the downloaded folder will contain a bunch of 'flac' (or 'shn') files, which is a way of zipping audio without any loss. You'll then need to go out on the web to find a flac to wave converter to actually get usable files. Sounds like a lot of work, but well worth it...and the price is right. All of this is free!
Best,
Tony
