to an Android Phone using Mega app on the phone. I've tried without installing the app but it allows a download ONLY using their app. It is just a little tricky. I tried and the 1st time I touched lightly on the first song and it started playing. Then I pressed and held for a second on the 1st song and it put a green check mark on the left. I was then able to select all of the other files, green checks on left, and select the download button. It then asked me if I wanted to download to internal or external storage. If you have an external microSD card I would download to there. Note that when the download starts note that it give the location where the files will be downloaded to. It goes by really fast. For external storage, is something like: /storage/6366-3131/Android/data/mega.privacy.android.app/files If you download multiple files at once, they will all be put in a folder under the above path, e.g., /storage/6366-3131/Android/data/mega.privacy.android.app/files/MP3_320kbps Note that "/storage/6366-3131" is the part that refers to my phone's microSD card and may be a different number on different phone or if you download to internal memory. The important part is to look for the "Android/data/..." folder. I then use a File Manager app to move the files from there to a folder where I keep all of my music. But you should be able to play them even from the folder where Mega puts them.THank you, dancy. It is all the way you've described, except the last (bolded part). that's where I have a problem - File Manager is not getting to the files for Mega app and I can't play from Mega files either because as I mentioned MEGA goes back to the cloud and plays via WiFi ...I found no way to tell it play from local fiels... I will try again tomorrow, may be I am missing some settings...as a last resort I'll use my PC to move the files... (I had this problem with MEGA beta a couple of years ago and since then avoided this app as a plague, but I really want to have HB2 recorded by you as I know they must be great quality and the concert was amazing).

What file manager app did you try using? I use "ES File Explorer" which I find to be much better for most purposes than the default file manager supplied with Android. You can find it in the Play Store. Did you try playing the files with VLC Media Player? In my opinion, it is the best player out there and there is a version for Android, Windows, Mac & other systems.
