Okay, for me, I just go to spanishpod.com, download the mp3 directly from the site. I have about a hundred on my mp3 player.

This site only gives you a 7 day free trial, no credit card needed. After the 7 days, you can continue as a free user, or pay for all the features. You can download all you want in that week. They have exactly what you are looking for.

Yes, they have a lot of interesting dialogs... arguments, buying food, babies, work, boyfriends/girlfriends. If you are looking for something specific, just search it. smile Let me know how you guys like that site.

I do this often, PeterPierre. First I download what I want to hear. Then I simply copy it to my mp3 player, which connects to my computer via USB (Universal Serial Bus) and looks to my computer like any other disc. I can make folders and load the Spanish (in my case, it is always Spanish dialog) to folders and then listen when I go for a walk, for example.

When the dialog which I want is not already in the mp3 format, I convert it via a program called Audacity. However, I could easily put other formatted sound on my player to listen to....wav files, for example.

What kind of mp3 player do you have?

I have a 2Gb IItronics player, which I use when I go cycling (yes I know it can be dangerous....) - peterpierre2, Sep 27, 2009

By the way, being in the market for a new mp3 player for my walks (on a bicycle, I fear I would soon become roadkill) I looked up information for the Iitronics and happened upon this article about how to download to the -IMP65 from a computer running the Windows XP operating system. http://downloading to IMP65 from Windows XP

I do not really think that your question is about that but rather about where to find the good material to download. But just in case......

And ps, I did also see that one can copy music to the device just as though the device were another drive on the computer.

One last thing: the BBC has material....brief conversations, etc., for which their is no fee to download. Check out their language offerings. Unfortunately not all are available to people outside the UK, but many are.
