Download and install the SpiralFrog download manager. This is a lightweight application which allows your web browser to download music to your computer.
Ensure that you have either Windows Media Player 10 or 11 on your computer. This software program is free for Windows users. If your version is not current, visit the Microsoft website and download the latest version which will run on your computer.
Return to the SpiralFrog website and search under Artist/Group or Album. This will quickly connect you to complete albums which are available for download on the website. If the artist or album is available for download, a small green icon will appear in the left column under "Available." Click this icon to continue. On the artist's page, multiple albums will appear. One or two will show up next to the artist's image, and more will appear in the area marked "Recommended Albums." There will be another section with six tabs. Select the one marked "Album" if it is not already selected. Browse these albums to see which ones you would like to download.
Click on the "Play Clip" button if you would like to sample a song before downloading it. If this is the album you wish to download in its entirety, scroll down to the "Track Listings" area and click the "Download Entire Album" link. Enter the captcha letters in the field and click "Go." The first song in the list will begin to download. There is no need to manually activate the subsequent songs. They will begin to download automatically after a length of time has passed.
Open Windows Media Player when the album is finished downloading, and click the "Library" tab. On the left hand side in the Library menu, click "Album." Scroll down until you find the album you just downloaded. Double-click on the image to open the album and play the music. Alternatively, you may navigate to your My Music folder and open the SpiralFrog folder. Songs are organized by artist first, and by album second.
