Statement 19 April 2010
Due to a technical failure caused by Apple it's possible that you don't see a media bar to play the songs. This can happen when you run Apple Mac OS X 10.6 ("Snow Leopard") in combination with the Safari 4 browser. Please keep on running all upcoming Apple-updates to solve this problem in the near future. In the meantime you can use the Firefox browser.
Update 9 June 2010: Apple released Safari 5. If you upgrade the problem with the media bar should be gone. Let us know if this is not the case. (See below.)
Introduction
DeLiedjeskrant.nl offers the listener/reader to listen to or download every song and to print the lyrics.
Listen
With the media bar on the front page you can listen to the Song of the Week. Furthermore you can choose an article and a new page will be opened. There too you can listen to the song.
Some versions of Microsoft's Internet Explorer show a safety bar first at the upper level of our front page. To be able to listen to the songs, you have to accept the ActiveX-elements of DeLiedjeskrant.nl.
If you don't see a media bar, but only a white rectangle with a red cross, then the media player hasn't been installed (properly) or maybe your anti-virus software blocks playing songs. Look in the manual of your operating system, anti-virus software or go to the website of your manufacturer.
Download
To save a song on your hard drive, click on "free download". A ZIP-file will be sent to your hard drive. Where it will be left, depends on your operating system and (the settings of) your web browser. Often this folder is called "Downloads" or "My Received Files". Some operating systems like Mac OS X will unzip the file immediately to the mp3 file format, so you can play it directly in your favourite player (like Windows Media Player, QuickTime, iTunes or WinAMP). In Windows XP you have to unzip the file yourself by double clicking on it and run the next steps. Afterwards you can play the song in your favourite player or add it to your other digital music.
Print
Printing the lyrics of a song is very easy. Just look for the "Print" function of your web browser.
Burn
For your own use you have the right to burn one or more songs on a recordable CD. Then you can listen to the music on your home or car stereo. Burning a CD can be done in many ways. Windows XP users often choose Nero; Apple users use Toast most of the time. Also with Apple's iTunes (available for Windows and Mac OS X) you can burn CD's.
