I thought mp3 plays automatically in any softwear that audience have
setup for playing mp3. If not then, it'll just download the file,,,I'm
guessing though...

Have you had some people had problem with filename?

I have renamed file in Current/tantra folder this way
"01_filename.html"
It just it makes it different from old files which is named this way
"01filename.html"

But once you got all the files renamde in order then it doesn't really
matter
01filename.html or 01_filename.html

I have always worked with file name with underscore..

As long as there is no wired symbols or anything that creates
technical problem, I thinkYou should organize in a way that you can
easily get around upto the point where the way of the organization
won't create too much of problem for viewer.

It's your call.

Let me know.
