free Download without login?

[thesoundsmith]

How can I set up a downloadable MP3 file so it is seen as a Free product, and the customer does not need to be logged in to download? I have several tracks that play well, but the audio is too poor to sell, so I offer them for the afficianados that can ignore the distortion, but they have o log in to get them. I'd like to avoid that (I can always put a straight download link on the main site (http://www.thesoundsmith.com but I want to get them into the store browsing.

I assume this is some attribute or another, but i don't see it...

Thanks.

I should mention I do have the ebook, but I don't see an answer there eiither.

Sorry, RTFM error. I think - I found the annswer here - funny, since I got the ebook I forgot about these files. My bad.

You probably figured this out, but just in case someone else needs to know. It's a simple matter to place anything you want on an EZ Page. I've put order forms on such a page because I want my wholesale customers to be able to download them with just a few clicks, without logging in. The forms are PDFs, but you could do the same with MP3s or any other file type.

You can also add to product description, using html
to point to download url

Even with this information I haven't been able to do it. I am trying to add a word document to an EZ page for the customers to download an order form for my personalised items.
Can anybody explain me with a bit more detail?
Thank you for any help.

I found some information online and I have been trying different options without any luck.

I put a word document (order_form) in public_html/docs and I tried to link to it in different ways with the following results

<p><a href="http://docs/order_form.doc">click here to download</a></p>

Server not found
Firefox can’t find the server at docs.

<p><a href="http://diytmededweddings.com/docs/order_form.doc">click here to download</a></p>

Firefox can't find the server at diytmededweddings.com.

<p><a href="http://order_form.doc">click here to download</a></p>

Firefox can't find the server at order_form.doc.

Please, I know it is easy but I can't figure it out.

Thank you for any help.

some other things I have tried

<p><a href="/docs/order_form.doc">click here to download</a></p>

Error 404 page not found and it takes me to the site map

I also followed some instructions to create a php. File, that I saved in the same folder as the document to download and named it the same.

<?php
header('Content-disposition: attachment; filename=order_form.doc');
header('Content-type: application/doc');
readfile('order_form.doc');
?>
Linked to it
<a href="order_form.doc">Download Order Form</a>

I have tried this last option with the files in the download folder and the docs folder

ERROR 404 - PAGE NOT FOUND
Oops! Looks like the page you're looking for was moved or never existed.
Make sure you typed the correct URL or followed a valid link.

Can anybody tell me what I am doing wrong?

I have no problem linking to images or embeding videos.
